Expectations: Zach Miller

A quick look at the offense shows a lack of familiar names, and the defense might be fixed just in time for the offense to lose its punch. Can Zach Miller step up?

Barring something dramatic happening, Zach Miller is now the #1 tight end on the Chicago Bears. After leading the team with touchdown receptions in 2015, that makes a certain amount of sense. Any sports fan has to love the story of a lunch-pail pro who has a chance to shine and makes good. The attitude and energy Miller brought to the team last year was one of the bright spots of the season, and he backed both up in terms of production.
