If the Chicago Bears want to revamp their offense, former BYU back Paul Lasike could be the key.
Chicago Tribune writer Brad Biggs discussed the Bears' interest in bringing a fullback back into their offense, and Lasike's path to becoming the prime candidate to start in that position.
He quoted Bronco Mendenhall in discussing Lasike's transition from rugby to football, and compared his learning curve to that of Ziggy Ansah.
Lasike talked about how he always dreamed of playing for the New Zealand All Blacks rugby team.
"I'm not going to say I would have made it or not," he said. "The shot was there. My path kind of changed a little."
