Tyrique Stevenson mocks the Skol Chant and the Bears paid for it

It’s never a good idea to mock the Skol Chant if you’re an opposing player —  look at Bears’ safety Tyrique Stevenson. In the second quarter of the Monday Night Football game against Chicago, Vikings’ quarterback Sam Darnold threw an interception in which Stevenson came down with the ball. But the Bears were trailing by 10 points.

That didn’t stop Stevenson from mocking the chant, though. He wasn’t the first player to do so and likely won’t be the last. But like Monday night showed — it’s not a great idea. The Vikings would crush the Bears 30-12 and move their record to 12-2 on the season.

It’s not the first time Stevenson was questionable decision-making for the 4-10 Bears. Like most people remember, when the Commanders threw and caught a hail mary to win the game, Stevenson was a partial reason for it. He was seen talking and bragging to Washington fans. While quarterback Jayden Daniels hiked the ball, Stevenson ran toward the play, tipped the ball, and landed in the hands of Commanders’ receiver Noah Brown.

Maybe one day, these players will learn.
