Bears writer believes the Bears should take a shot on this veteran WR
Last Monday, Aaron Wilson of Pro Football Network would report that wide receiver Will Fuller is «being monitored by multiple NFL teams.»
Obviously, many people on the internet immediately thought of the Chicago Bears that are still in search of any help they can get at the wide receiver position.
Well, if you asked Bears writer Jacob Infante, Fuller should definitely be on GM Ryan Poles' radar prior to the start of the season. Here is what he Tweeted out on Sunday.
I think this makes a lot of sense and the risk would be fairly low. Especially with the injuries to Velus Jones, Byron Pringle, and N'Keal harry, the Bears are weaker than ever at this spot.
In 2020, Fuller ranked 18th in total downfield passing yards � or receptions when targeted 20-plus yards downfield � and 23rd in receptions, all while playing in only 11 games. The 2019 season was a similar story; Fuller appeared in 11 games but still finished 11th in downfield yards and 14th in downfield receptions. If healthy for an entire season, he could have very well ranked among the best in these categories.
However, staying healthy has been the issue for Fuller. He would appear in only two games in 2021 with Miami, 11 during the 2019 and 2020 seasons, as already mentioned. Along with playing in just seven games in 2018 and 10 in 2017. In fact, Fuller has never played a full NFL season.
