In the Bears’ 20-17 loss this Monday, Kendall Wright played 54% of the offensive snaps—less than both Tre McBride and Markus Wheaton. With his 33 opportunities, Kendall led the team in receptions and yards, and—according to Pro Football Focus—allowed Mitchell Trubisky a 105.0 passer rating when targeted. Trubisky’s first two career passing attempts were completions to Wright, and the pair showed great chemistry. This only adds to the important potential here to inspire an exhausting number of puns from play-by-play and color announcers alike.
Trubisky rolls right, looks for a receiver, and Wright’s right there.
