The Nepenthes rafflesiana is a carnivorous plant that uses scent traps to attract its prey. Basically, the leaves emit a smell that insects can't resist and then the plant attacks. A similar strategy is being used by new Bears linebacker Danny Trevathan.

After Wednesday's start of training camp in Chicago, offensive lineman Kyle Long explained how Trevathan's fragrance can be entrancing.

“He’s one of those guys that kind of has an aura about him,” Long said, via CBS Chicago. “He walks in with all his chains on, he looks sharp every day like he just left a video shoot. You see him on the field and you block him, and he kind of smells good, he wears cologne. But then you get caught up in the aroma and you get hit in the chin and you get hit under the chin. And if you do get your hands on him to block him, he will fight like a crazy SOB to get off you."

This luring odor omitting from Trevathan must be working for him because he's been key to the Broncos' defensive success over the recent years. He led the postseason in total tackles, including eight in the Super Bowl, which led Denver.

His dominant play earned him a four-year contract with the Bears, and the team hopes he can continue to distract opponents with his overwhelming cologne.
