As I am sure everyone is aware, the transition from collegiate football to NFL football is a big jump. 

There is often more verbiage in play calls, players have to be at the top of their game mentally and physically, and of course, the all-around skill level is 100x of what is featured in college.

Part of this is being more strict with diets going into and during the season. Team doctors will give each player an ideal number for them to play at throughout the season to maximize their impact on what the coaches want. 

Rookies will often have tests at the start of camps so that coaches can gauge how well they are doing in their new routines.

Bears rookie offensive tackle Darnell Wright recently crushed his offensive line conditioning test, and it happened to be because of a hilarious accident.

As it turns out, Wright was training for the wide receiver conditioning test.

Update from Darnell Wright on this: He accidentally looked at the WR conditioning test and was training for that one (it’s longer and faster). So yeah, he crushed the OL test. ? https://t.co/30dTEcHBXW

Wright had been praised just a few days ago for losing weight and body fat.

#Bears GM Ryan Poles says No. 10 overall draft pick Darnell Wright "busted his butt" in the offseason. Wright has lost weight and body fat.

"He absolutely crushed the conditioning test. Like didn't break a sweat."

Now we know why. Wright appears to be in top shape and ready for the season, already.
