Jason Heyward shares who he’s rooting for in Super Bowl 50

By Rob Ogden

Bears connections have many Chicagoans rooting for the Panthers tonight, and new Cubs outfielder Jason Heyward is among them – though for a different reason.

Heyward tweeted out his Super Bowl pick during the game.

Heyward knows how hard it is to reach a championship game. He has yet to win a playoff series during his six-year MLB career.

After a rough start, Carolina has held Denver to three consecutive three-and-outs and trails 10-7 midway through the second quarter.
