DT Melton thrives on instincts

LAKE FOREST – On the Bears’ first play last week against the Minnesota Vikings, Henry Melton exploded out of his three-point stance and aimed for the quarterback.

Vikings center John Sullivan tried to stand in the way. His mistake.

Melton relied on a swim move, angling his body and raising his right arm over Sullivan’s helmet in the motion of a freestyle swimmer. As Melton’s arm splashed down behind Sullivan, he shoved the lineman in the back while pushing himself toward the quarterback.
