Getsy expressed his empathy for players sorting out their personal lives during OTAs. He is an advocate of players addressing separate priorities off the field, even if it means missing time on the practice field.
But, Getsy's excited about kickstarting the chemistry between his players, especially the new ones.

"It's the chemistry part of it that you really want. That's why you want all the guys here," Getsy said.
The Bears signed Davis to a three-year $30 million deal this offseason. He will presumably become the Bears' new starting right guard, teaming up alongside Teven Jenkins and Cody Whitehair on the interior.
Last season, the Bears fielded one of the worst offensive line units in the NFL. Justin Fields became the most sacked and most pressured quarterback by the season's end. Despite the line's success in the run game, it became evident their need for upgrades this offseason.
Davis spent the first four seasons of his career with the Tennessee Titans, starting in 54 games. He blocked for the likes of Derrick Henry and Ryan Tannehill.
