Bears 2020 training camp preview: Wide Receivers

The Chicago Bears wide receiving corps must be productive for the offense to succeed in 2020. Let’s take a look at each member.

Ginn’s best days are likely behind him, but that doesn’t mean he can’t be a contributor on the Bears offense. He insists that his speed remains intact despite being 35 years of age now. Outside of 2018, health hasn’t been a concern for Ginn in his 13-year career. Three years removed from a nearly 800 yards receiving season, Ginn’s targets dropped considerably in New Orleans in the last two seasons, as Drew Brees found a consistent connection with Michael Thomas.

Ginn will be an important piece to help stretch the field, averaging 13.9 yards-per-reception during his career, which is better than anyone else on the Bears’ wide receiving corps. He figures to be the number three receiver at this point in his career, but look for Ginn to be one of the more underrated signings of the offseason.
