Professional sports teams are seeking any sort of social media content during the widespread shutdowns due to coronavirus, and many of them are using the space to show appreciation for those working around the clock to ensure the public's safety.

The Chicago Bears decided to get a bit creative and have linebacker Roquan Smith read a message thanking those in healthcare for their hard work during this tough time. While it was a kind act from Smith, his teammates made a mockery of him, because, well, you can tell he was reading whatever he said directly from a sheet of paper.

Allen Robinson, Tarik Cohen and Anthony Miller all left replies and were clearly at home laughing hysterically while doing so. Robinson kicked it all off, which got everyone else involved.

And that opened up the floodgates.

Cohen followed up by continuing to joke about Smith's inability to be like a newscaster and seamlessly read a script while making it sound natural.

But perhaps the best of all, Robinson delivered the final blow by making fun of Smith's smile right before the video began.

Oh wait, that's Akiem Hicks' music!

That's the finisher. Good night, Roquan.

During times like these, it's at least encouraging to see a group of teammates and friends having a good laugh, however it remains to be seen if Smith even knows this is happening.
