A little over two seasons ago, Cameron Meredith was a rising star. After catching 66 passes for 888 yards on a horrendous Bears team in 2016, the receiver looked like one of the NFL’s next up-and-comers to keep a keen eye on. A stellar possession man with an uncanny knack for making himself available to the quarterback, Meredith had everything a modern offense wanted in a flanker. Following a disastrous, poorly-timed torn ACL in 2017’s preseason, and it’s as if Meredith’s proposed meteoric rise happened in a different era of football.
Who’s to say it ever happened after what he’s been through?
