One NFL player had a shocking visit from a family of bears on Monday night, not the football team, but real bears. The New York Jets will not be playing the Chicago Bears this year, but that did not stop one of the best cornerbacks in the game Sauce Gardner from receiving a visit from their mascot.
NFL Star Sauce Gardner Gets a Visit From Family of Bears
The Jets had a football weekend of rest after demolishing the New England Patriots, and while they all stayed home to watch the football this weekend, their star corner got a surprised visit from a family of bears.
On Monday night, as Gardner must have been watching the games being played, he shared a wild video of a pack of bears walking towards his front porch by his house. In the video, it appears that at least 6 bears were right by his doorstep.
Gardner did not seem too worried by it, however, as he asked his fans on social media if they thought he should feed them as they live right around his house:
“The family of bears just walked to my house once again and I think they trynna jump me,” Gardner wrote on social media. “Do I call a truce with them and just start feeding them and taking care of them?”
Here is not the viral video, of Sauce hanging out with the bears.

Fans loved the video posted by Sauce and had tons of comedic responses. This was an easy one for fans to poke some fun with as there is just too much NFL-related joke material.
“Call Aaron Rodgers,” one fan said. “He owns the Bears.”
“Paint a goal line in front of your house,” another fan replied. “Bears can’t cross a goal line!”
“Just give Aaron a call,” a third fan joked.
Other fans had the practical approach of telling him to absolutely not feed them and call the appropriate people to handle it.
SAUCE:
It is extremely rare for a momma to have 5 cubs. This family should be tagged and tracked where they can stay safe.
Please call the local bear conservation entity in your area!

I think all the signs I’ve ever seen said “feed the bears.” 28% sure it’s a good idea.

The Jets will be focused on building their win streak this week, as fans are convinced the team is a legitimate contender with their Hall of Fame quarterback playing well.
Sace is one of the best cornerbacks in the game and he is trying to earn All-Pro honors again. The Jets will have a very interesting game this week against the Denver Broncos, as there are plenty of familiar faces between the teams.
