Focusing on Bears receiver position

After an injury-plagued 2015 season, the Bears' wide receiver corps is hoping for a much healthier and more prosperous 2016 campaign.

The team's top four receivers entering training camp combined to sit out 35 of 64 games. Alshon Jeffery was limited to nine games due to injuries to his calf, groin, hamstring and shoulder. First-round pick Kevin White was sidelined the entire season with a stress fracture in his shin. And Eddie Royal and Marquess Wilson missed significant time as well.

Alshon Jeffery led the Bears with 54 receptions in 2015 despite missing seven games with an array of injuries.
