Devin Hester Ready for Prime Time
Rather than talk about Brett Farve not wanting to be traded out of Green Bay, or T.O. telling us how he learned nothing from the Tuna (hard to learn when you sleep through team meetings, Terrell), what’s say we talk about some NFL news that might actually mean something?
ESPN is reporting that the Bears kick returner/lightning rod Devin Hester will switch from defense to offense beginning with this weekend’s full-squad minicamp. The Bears say they plan to work Hester in a role similar to how the Saints utilized Reggie Bush last season.
The good news for Bears fans? This should be REALLY fun to watch. It’s a no brainer to want to put a guy on the field more who has so much speed and talent.
The bad news for Bears fans? The Bears almost had to do this. They traded RB Thomas Jones to the Jets, and didn’t pick up one new wide receiver through either free agency or the draft. They simply needed more offensive firepower. We’ll see if Devin Hester is the answer.
