Last year, T.J. Edwards played a pivotal role in the Philadelphia Eagles Super Bowl run, and was rewarded this past offseason with a 3-year, $19.5 million contract from the Chicago Bears. Edwards was born and raised in Illinois, and his play this season is living up to the contract he was given by his hometown team.

Carolina Panthers vs. Chicago Bears Prediction
Through nine games, Edwards leads the Bears defense with 100 total tackles, and has the second most tackles in all of football. The books are giving us a favorable line with his tackles + assists prop set at 8.5, considering he is averaging 11.1 tackles per game. We can expect him to be on the field for all of the Bears' defensive snaps tonight. He is their green dot defender, and has a great matchup against a Panthers offense that has allowed an ILB to record 9+ tackles in six consecutive games. Edwards will also see a boost with his running mate Tremaine Edmunds sidelined. Last week, Edmunds suffered an early injury that forced him out of the game. Edmunds went on to rack up 15 total tackles, and I expect another strong outing from him tonight on prime time. Lock in his over 8.5 tackles + assists.
