Bears Sign Brandon Lloyd to One-Year Deal

[Oakland Red]

Though we are understandably disappointed in Lloyd's performance here, I don't think the issue with him was a lack of talent, but his mind set and attitude. He wasn't prepared for the spotlight and the pressure, he reacted poorly, and basically went into a downward spiral. I think he simply lacked maturity. The Redskins gave him every chance, but sometimes people close themselves off and go into a funk that you can't get them out of.

Going back to his old college coach, who has faith in him, may rekindle Lloyd's work ethic, confidence and determination. I think he could have a productive year if things go well.
