Something tells me he really appreciates this
Where do you get that?
@@Hiphiphooray490 read his journal
I appreciate this comment
Thanks for this comment, I really appreciate it.
@@markharper9040I appreciate you appreciating his comment.
What makes it even better is that his soon to be wife is from and lives in Chicago. Can see how excited she is.
Bears fan and a Band-Maid fan. Bear Down :)
He really wanted to come to Chicago. This is so awesome.
I can’t recall being this excited for Bears football since MAYBE 2006, and even this feels different.
BEAR DOWN
I’m sure she’s already pregnant with twins on the way
Great story congratulations welcome to Chicago up BEAR DOWN 💯🐻🏈
The vibe on this team is unreal
Unreal
Got a life? Or are you employed by the Bears?
@raywhitehead730 whats the point of being a dickhead
@@raywhitehead730 We're understandably excited because we've been a laughingstock for a long time
@@markrabideau4067most people aren’t gonna get that because they switch to the teams that are doing good that season they have no loyalty they don’t know what is bears fans have been through 😂
I loved how Tory's friends and family quietly & patiently sat by until he hung up the phone, then expoded in sheer joy!!!
6'4 223lbs. Generational Punter
Damn really? That’s a big ass punter.
@@jayceejackson3584No kidding! He’ll actually be able to tackle someone.
Yes and that's why he was picked 122nd 😂😂
@@iap6647he probably plays ARLF ( Aussie rules league football aka RUN EM OVER AND DONT APOLOGIZE)
The English one in the International Player Pathway is 6'6, 250lbs.
Punters are getting bigger...
I played juniors for the Dublin Celts back in the 80s in Ireland. I went to bed every night dreaming of being an NFL Player. A Bear. This guy is doing it for real. Well done. Welcome to Chicago, Tory.
🐻👇
Hell. Yes.
Aussie kid is gonna make us proud.
BEAR DOWN
As a iowa native and hawkeye fan along with being a bears fan im stoked ASF! BRO WAS IOWAS OFFENSE THIS PAST SEASON!
Technically he’d be your defense since he pinned the opposing offense down inside if their 10.
@jayceejackson3584 I know bro it's a joke I that would be the defense he was just the Kickstart for putting this horrible offense in any kind of position to succeed
@@jayceejackson3584you don’t understand, he was our offense and defense. You don’t know what it’s like for your team to have the worst offense in college football but have great defense and special teams. No fan should have to endure this
Man I love these calls
Good stuff
This dude has an incredible leg! Cant wait to see him ball out! Bear Down Tory! Welcome to Chicago!
lol the king of iowa punters is reggie roby! go look him up
@@JamesWoodring-mu2izthis guy is better bro
@@SBMiLzZ lol im not ur bro and the packers are ur daddy! facts ! whatelse u got snowflake?
He's a guy I'm happy we have, but hopefully won't need. 😉
@@SBMiLzZ roby made 3 pro bowls jr!
Punters are people too. Love this video video because all the great players who are expected to be picked have like 70 family members and friends celebrating with them but having a handful of people in your circle when Punters aren’t really drafted, shows how much people are there for you and believe in you. Go Taylor! 🐻⬇️
too bad the packers are ur daddy
@@JamesWoodring-mu2iz It’s a new year we’ll see about that in a few months 😉
@@jay-7379 yeah im glad the pack doesnt have a soy boy pansy narcissist as qb! lol ur right we will see cubs fans
@@JamesWoodring-mu2izlmao enjoy your first round pick… who ever the hell yall got
@@JamesWoodring-mu2iz someone’s worried about the Bears 🐻 😂
Watched enough Bear videos?
His girl is from Chicago
You mean soon to be baby mama with twins before the check comes and two more afterwards 😂
@@KimberlyMitchell-jf7nv😂😂😂
This dude single-handedly carried Iowa, good thing he got drafted
I'm from Denmark. European Bears fan. Hats off to you, James Gowers. Done a jolly good job.
I love football - kickingi t and throwing. Tory Taylors jersey is a MUST HAVE ‼🐻⬇
As a lions fan I'm not going to lie I'm getting a little worried about the Bears You got my favorite college punter now too what the hell.
Be afraid. Be very afraid 🐻👇
Gg this year is going to be fun and hopefully a turning point for da bears
@@chadanding8692 Yeah maybe calm down just a bit. Dude hasn't made a single punt in the NFL yet. Steelers fan here and when the Steelers took Pressley Harvin III in the 2021 Draft HE was then touted as the "Best" College Football punter ever. Launched it 60+ yards regularly and dropped it inside the 10 yd line. Dude is now a free agent as he could NOT carry it over to the NFL and the Steelers HAD to part ways with him. Just sayin' that Bears fans need to chill a bit about this dude......THERE ARE NO "SURE THINGS" in the NFL.
His response to Chicago was “I can’t believe you’ve done this.”
Lol I'm dieing
Welcome to Chicago Bear down
Great draft Bears
Ik his lil brother irl
No green room, bright lights, flashy suits, red carpet sensationalism. Just a guy getting drafted in his family room and expressing gratitude. A much more human experience. The way it should be. Chicago is sure to embrace this young man. Welcome to Chicago mate 🦘 🦈
C’mon now no need to disrespect those that earned the right to be in the green room with their families. I like a good underdog story too but let’s be real.
Kickers and punters don't usually get drafted. They make the team via tryouts. So stop acting like Tory is somehow more down to earth. Believe me, if he had been a top-ten pick, he would have been in the green room, too. Watching the guys in person is good for TV and the NFL.
You’re kinda missing my point but maybe it’s the way I presented it. I really wasn’t talking about the person so much as the manner in which his story was told. Clean and without embellishment. It has more sincerity to it IMHO. I wouldn’t care if it was a punter or Caleb Williams himself. I get the dog and pony show and I enjoy that as well, up to a point, but at the end of the day I think this makes for a more relatable story. I’m not hating on the guys that have the spotlight in the green room or “rooting for the underdog” that’s drafted sitting at his kitchen table. Just saying I liked the way it went down for him.
Iowa fan here. You guys really picked up a heck of a player. He was constantly there mostly every game when we needed him. Making teams start inside their own 5 is a huge advantage.
Next time you see him on MTV, cribs , he will have at least a 75 inc Tv. Love this kid, love this draft 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉
He hung up on Kevin Warren 😂
Dont think he did. Otherwise they had more staff and coaches talk to their 4th round punter they picked, than they talked to Caleb Williams, Odunze, and other lmao
Goosebumps watching it😅
I'm happy for him and I'm happy we got him
Dude is a unit!!! Welcome to Chicago, big dawg🐻⬇️
As an Aussie myself, I'm over the moon about Tory being drafted to my team... 🐻🇦🇺👍
Go Bears !!
This is outstanding! 🐻⬇️🇦🇺
Got to love seeing the player really appreciate their opportunity. Tory really showed he how badly he wanted to be a Chicago Bear. I’m happy Poles made it happen
Yall peep his buddy with the blue and orange dunks on... 200 percent he one of us... A MIDWAY MONSTER!!!
Put it through the roof my guy
Look at his stats vs. Wisconsin in Iowa's victory in Madison. He was a howitzer that day💪
Say good bye now trenton gill
Noodle leg
who
you gotta earn your money in this league
Oh my word, what a polite young man.
"Surf's Up, Mate !" LOL... the guy has a rocket leg !! And can place it as well....
Even punting is going to be exciting for Bears fans.
Amazing pick by the bears, the best punter available in the draft, we really needed a punter. This guy can drill the punt.
The Koala Bear has landed!! 🇦🇺🐻👇🏾
The King Pin, Legatron, the Aussassin has arrived
Seems like a good dude. 🐻⬇️
Surfs up, mate.
This guy is a hell of a punter he can Flip the field great pick I watched some tape last night on him he is the real deal !!!
this dude locks in!! go bears!!
Lets Go Bears!!!!!! 💪🐻
GO BEARS BABY 🤫🤫🤫 HEY LISTEN MAN, ALL THESE CALLS GOT ME EMOTIONAL ASL THIS YEAR!!!! IM FRIED BUT HES A VIBE!!!
These are the video's people want to see. Not just showing a GM or whoever is making the call but the celebration of the players Family and friends live reaction to who just drafted them. Good luck to this young man!
Surf up and bear down hell yeah!
Kid drops bombs. Watched him play many times in college
Great move and excellent draft.
The position on the field counts in football. Surf's up
It more than counts. Most fans dont know shit about football, they only focus on QB, WR, RB. When in reality for people that know football.. they know the OLine is the most important position, and Kicker and Punter are also two of the most important position and can change outcomes of a game and can be the difference between a Win and a Loss. Having a punter than can place the ball within the 5 every time is HUGE! This was a mega pick up
Word on the street is that he really appreciates it, thankyou!
This was very human and lovely to watch, Bear Down
Just an average kid that grinded his whole life for a dream he had, and it finally paid off...man that is good!
Extreme value pick for the Bears. Caleb Williams texted him that he wouldn't have to punt much. Too good.
What an incredible moment. So very happy for the young man. Bear the fk Down!!!!
I’m excited for Tory i wish him well and may he achieve greatness
That guy is special!!
Hopefully we won't have to use him much but if we do, I know he is going to pin them back deep. Welcome to Chicago! BEAR DOWN!
Just a great story welcome to Chicago man surf up mate you gotta love it The Weapon. Chicago up BEAR CLAWS DOWN 💯🐻🏈 Boot away mate
This dude was the best player on the Iowa team. He's gonna be a major weapon for us
Hightower *we appreciate you
Taylor * this mf spittin
ABSOLUTE VEAPON MATE
Forget the punting for a moment. This dude is a good soul. The community created Punting is Winning T-shirts in honor of Tory's impact on the game. They asked for Tory's permission to sell the T-shirts and he requested the money be donated to charity. Not only did the T-shirts sell, but Tory went in balls deep in support of the Counting the Kicks charity which is something he didn't have to do but did it anyway.
BEAR DOWN
Congratulations buddy! Bear down 🍻
Man I love the Bears logo so much!! I love this team!!!! 😭😭
Take a shot every time he says “I really appreciate it, thank you.”
This pick was a must need. We were hurting so bad at punter and now we got the best punter ever at the college level .

@@gregd6706 are u seriously comparing him to harvin? Good lord lol. 😂
Bro some of these phone calls sound so awkward
Go bears baby 💯
Go Bears Baby
Go Bears baby
Only thing missing was "welcome to da bears!!"
Beautiful
This was a great pick..idc what anyone says. I don't care if you call him "punt god", "legatron", "crocodile punter" he is a Chicago BEAR! Welcome Mate...BEAR DOWN!
We may never lose again!
_"surfs up"_ 😂
Hopfully you'll REARLY see the the field, but in the case you do, MAKE EM PAY T.T. Bear down baby!
The Lil kid next to him was wearing Bears colors on his shoes. They manifested this!!!
Sounds like an automated response. "appreciate it, thank you" 10X
It's cool to see a punter have their time in the sun.
I literally thought this was a linebacker from the thumbnail. Wow!
International superstar kickers having Cairo from Brazil and now Tory from AUS!
That’s dope.
Any other year we would be Complaining like a mf about a 4th round punter 😂
This punter is big as hell, no diddy . Imagine running one of his punts back and he's all what's left between you and a punt return TD? 😂 Good luck!
I think he was Stunned he got picked 😂
Generational punter ! I haven’t been this excited about our team since 06’ ! What a time to be alive !
🐻TF⬇️❗️

This dudes leg is a rocket launcher. Bomb punts pin em deep and help your defense big time. Smart move.

“ the bears baby”
Bears finally have an Aussie! 🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺
Dude looks like a giant compared to his family in the room lol
These Phone Tap Recordings are Ridiculous.
More and more I LOVE THIS PICK. To hell with the doubters a weapon is a weapon no matter how they affect the game

@@gregd6706 k. You done.
Respectfully, I’ll calm down where I see fit. While your logic is sound, I’d like to remind you how poorly we punted this year. Now, why don’t you go ahead and think of a witty response, I’ll crack another beer and wait…I might even give a smelly rats ass what you have to say and read it
@@gregd6706 this will help you out…
In 2023, the Chicago Bears ranked 25th in gross yardage (46.1 yards per punt), 31st in net (38.0), 30th in touchback percentage (11.9%), 30th in punts inside the 20-yard line (26.9%) and 25th in return yards allowed (381)
So forgive me if I’d like to imagine we upgraded…however YOUR punter ended up has little practical relevance to the one we drafted besides the coincidence of the position, and the evaluation which was proven inaccurate
Additionally, might I remind you that your field has maybe the only grass shittier than the Bears, in the whole league? Which often makes or ruins kickers, depending on the player
@@jacklatta1890 That doesn't "help me out" ONE IOTA......Both Pressley Harvin and Tory Taylor were touted as the next GENERATIONAL NFL punting prospects. As we have seen Harvin was an AMAZING College football punter who FLAMED out on the NFL.......NOTHING is saying Taylor might not do the same. I hope he doesn't and lives up to his potential but there are ZERO "sure thing" prospects. Oh yeah....by the way....GRASS???? You really need to learn the difference between PUNTERS and KICKERS dude. Just Sayin'...
@@gregd6706 I guess you are so right…I’m so dumb…we done? Because I could really care less…it’s not worth it even if I cared which I really don’t. So, you win. Happy?
Bye bye 👋
this is dope
LMAO his soon to be wife was probably trippin. Not only is your man the first punter to get drafted, he gets drafted in the 4th round of all, and to Chicago where you and your family is from. Imagine your Husband being drafter to your home town team!
U guys deserve a great qb m. I think Bagent will be great. I hope Caleb is amazing I’m just worried about Caleb’s mental stuff. Talks about immortality lol what? How will Caleb react going on a 4 game losing streak?
He just wants to be great. What’s the problem with that? Also, please don’t mention Bagent again 🤣 You’re delusional
"Caleb Williams drops back to pass, ahh just out of reach and this results in an incomplete pass."
Tory Taylor: "You know, thank you so much, I really appreciate it."
Im glad we have him.... but how hope we dont need him often
Welcome buddy.Get it DONE!!!!!
Were gonna have some wierd ass personalities on this team. Lot of strong personalities. That being said...every packer fan i know is literally cleaning their drawers seeing what the bears have done this off-season
what else do you say. Im really excited. I appreciate that. thank you
Surf's up mate 😁😁😁👍👍
