Wide receivers group lacks no shortage of depth and talent

By Adam Gibson | Sports Writer

As the Bears prepare for the football season to begin, one unit stands out from the rest with the amount of talent, speed and depth that it holds.

This year’s group of wide receivers, which contains only two senior players, has enough speed and talent in underclassmen to make up for any inexperience. Under new wide receivers coach Frisman Jackson, the wide receiver core is coached by someone who has experience not only with coaching, but in playing as a receiver himself.

Jackson played four seasons in the NFL with the Cleveland Browns, then moved to coaching at NC State, Temple, the Tennessee Titans and finally Baylor.
