4. Will Bears completely overhaul the tight end position?
One of the biggest questions for Chicago this offseason looms at the tight end position, where the Bears will have a lot to address. The lack of production in 2019 — where tight ends combined for 46 receptions, 416 yards and one touchdown — is unacceptable.
At the forefront of the disappointment are starters Trey Burton and Adam Shaheen, both of which were ineffective prior to landing on injured reserve. With the Bears expected to add tight ends to the roster, what becomes of Burton and Shaheen in 2020?
While it’s more likely that the Bears would cut Shaheen rather than Burton (who would be a $7.5 million dead cap hit), Chicago is still expected to make a push this offseason to better that position group. The Bears will likely target a veteran in free agency and draft a young prospect.
