The Bears defensive end is fighting to climb up depth chart in training camp.
. It was no secret that the team and Gipson himself each wanted to see more consistency in his play, but to see his name on the last line, behind players like undrafted free agent rookie D’Anthony Jones, was still jarring.
That might change in the near future as Gipson played a big number of snaps on Saturday, and made himself at home in the Titans’ backfield. Gipson finished the day tied for second on the team with five tackles, with one sack and three QB hits. They don’t show up in the stat sheet, but Gipson added plenty of QB pressures as well.
One would think that Gipson would be motivated by seeing his name all the way down the Bears depth chart, but after the game he said that wasn’t the case. “I light my own fire if I’m being honest with you. I’ve been doubted my whole life. I’ve never let anybody on the outside world determine my faith, my faith in God or my faith in my hard work.”
Gipson was happy to make the plays that he did and appreciates that he came away clearly helping the team win, but the first things he mentioned when talking about his day were the plays he didn’t make. Gipson felt he should’ve had more than just the one sack.The man opposite Gipson on the defensive line, Terrell Lewis, also made several big plays, including one impressive strip sack.
