Warriors in the Pros: Bears vs 49ers, LaBoy
In tonight's Bears vs 49ers preseason game, Leonard Peters, Isaac Sopoaga and Jeff Ulbrich recorded one tackle each. Unfortunately, Ulbrich suffered a lower back strain in the game. Ashley Lelie did not play due to his calf injury.

LaBoy describes his game as doing "a little bit of everything OK," rather than dominating in any one area.
"I hope I'm well-rounded," he said. "I run to the ball. A good motor."
That comes into play for the linebacker, er, defensive end, no, "predator" spot. In addition to pass rushing, LaBoy - who has been playing behind Bertrand Berry - must defend the run.
"Travis is real explosive," Davis said. "He's got a lot of power. The (Cardinals) scouts did a great job of finding him. He has pass-rush ability. And in our system, our outside guys' first talent is outside rush ability.
"The other thing we saw on tape is how strong he was in the run game."
