Tillman muscles up to 'Megatron'

CHICAGO – In front of a sellout crowd and a national television audience, Bears cornerback Charles Tillman wasted little time in making his presence felt Monday at Soldier Field.

Tillman stepped in front of the first pass that was headed to Lions wide receiver Calvin Johnson. The ball dropped to the ground and foreshadowed a quiet day for Detroit's Pro Bowl wide receiver.

It didn’t matter that Tillman was 3 inches shorter and 38 pounds lighter than his 6-foot-5, 236-pound counterpart.
