Dan Hampton speaks like he played—all out.
Appearing on “Kap & Haugh” on 87.7-FM and Comcast SportsNet simulcast, the Bears Hall of Famer laid into coach Marc Trestman for his “fair” coaching style. Hampton took aim at Trestman’s policy of letting different players be captain each week.
“If you’re in a daycare, you might want to let everyone rotate being captains, because we all want to be fair,” Hampton said. “But this is the Chicago Bears. This is the NFL. The guys that the team votes as captains should be captains every week. Not a bunch of touchy-feely, we’re going to pass out juice boxes. Not, we’re going to let this guy be a captain. And, next week, we’re going to let that guy be a captain. That’s not the way it works.”
