The Chicago Bears have been the subject of criticism when it comes to the wide receiver position this offseason. With the importance of quarterback Justin Fields’ development, it’s easy to understand why.
Darnell Mooney is the only proven commodity at receiver, which isn’t exactly a recipe for success for a young quarterback. But the Bears do have some intriguing players who have the potential to develop into playmakers on offense — free-agent acquisition Byron Pringle and third-round rookie Velus Jones Jr.
Mooney is the clear-cut top receiver heading into the 2022 season, which means he’s going to be the focus for opposing defenses. That should give Pringle and Jones, among others, a real opportunity to make an impact on offense.
It all begs the question: Who will have more receiving yards this season, Pringle or Jones? We’ll make the case for each, and you can vote below.
