They struggled to find reliable targets for Mitch Trubisky, and Wright was their leading receiver with 59 catches for 614 yards and a touchdown. That’s now just a bad memory as Nagy implements his offense with a new cast of receivers with plenty to prove.
Robinson hasn’t practiced in full since he tore the ACL in his left knee on the Jaguars’ third snap of 2017. The Bears took it slowly this spring with Robinson, and his will be one of the most intriguing stories of camp.
White’s third attempt at coming back from a season-ending injury makes him perhaps the biggest lightning rod for outside criticism, but coaches are trying to get him to tune out chatter and focus on the present.
A former walk-on at Memphis, Miller is used to getting past obstacles and is confident he can do it again.
The Bears committed $42 million over three years, including $18 million fully guaranteed, with the confidence he is.
Robinson’s best season was in 2015, when he had 80 catches for 1,400 yards and 14 touchdowns. His 2016 drop-off to 73 catches for 883 yards and six touchdowns came amid a 3-13 season for the Jaguars, and he didn’t get the chance to improve upon that because of last season’s injury.
The Bears can’t fully know where Robinson is on the field yet, but they at least have seen him take the right approach.
“He’s really, really smart,” Furrey said. “You can tell he kind of has that alpha, pro personality, where he gets it. He knows you’ve got to come in early. He knows you have to be the last one to leave. He knows you have to study.
“It doesn’t matter (if you’re) five, six, nine years in. It doesn’t matter if you hear it 10 times. You have to keep taking notes. He’s been really good at that, and I’ve been really impressed with that.”
“He’s a natural catcher,” Nagy said. “There were times that you saw there were some inconsistent drops that he had (at Memphis), but there are a lot of wide receivers in this league that, unfortunately, have that. We’ll work to improve that. But he’s a confident kid that is talented.”
