The opening salvos of free agency were a thorough success for the Bears on Tuesday. One of those additions was the Swiss Army Knife known as former Eagles’ tight end Trey Burton.
With Burton’s addition being finalized on Wednesday, much will be made of how he fits into Chicago’s offense over the next few months. Coming over from defending champion Philadelphia, there is little doubt he will play a big factor into the creativity and diversity of Bears’ head coach Matt Nagy’s new offense. His role can’t be diminished.
