Allen Robinson has thoughts on who should join Eddie Jackson at safety in 2020

If you’re someone hoping Ha Ha Clinton-Dix returns to the Bears in 2020, you’re going to want to stop reading this.

Bears receiver Allen Robinson has thoughts on who should join Eddie Jackson at safety next season, and spoiler alert, it’s not Ha Ha.

Former Chiefs safety Eric Berry has had a productive career, and he’s overcome several obstacles along the way. He overcame cancer in 2014, but then dealt with an Achille’s injury during 2017-18.

Berry didn’t play in 2019, which according to NFL Network’s Mike Garafolo was an intentional decision. Now, he plans to make a return in 2020. Which has Robinson thinking ahead, and he’d like to see the former Chief in the Bears’ secondary.

Given that Clinton-Dix is expected to test the free agent market, Robinson might’ve assumed that Clinton-Dix already has his foot out the door.

Unfortunately for Robinson, Clinton-Dix took notice of his tweet.

The Bears signed Clinton-Dix last offseason to a one-year prove-it deal worth $3 million. Clinton-Dix had a productive season for the Bears, where he had 78 tackles, two interceptions, including one for a touchdown, and five pass breakups.

Clinton-Dix is likely to draw interest in free agency, and if the Bears were to re-sign him, the price-tag would definitely be higher than $3 million they paid him in 2019.
