Bears 2020 training camp preview: Tight ends

While the Bears have a crowded TE room, there are ultimately just four roster spots up for grabs. Let’s take a look at the Bears TEs.

Adam Shaheen’s time in Chicago will likely come to an end after training camp. The former second-round pick has struggled with injuries in his three years with the team, which has limited his development. Last year, Shaheen had nine receptions for 74 yards in eight games before being a healthy scratch against the Detroit Lions in Week 10. The following week, Shaheen landed on the injury report with a foot injury, and the Bears later placed him on injured reserve on Dec. 1.

The Bears brought in two “Y” tight ends that essentially replace Shaheen in Kmet and Harris. While Shaheen will be on Chicago’s roster come training camp, it’s not likely that he garners that final tight end roster spot.
