The Bears have to get better at tight end.
Last year, their guys at the spot combined for 46 catches, 422 yards and two touchdowns — worse production than 12 individual tight ends had around the league in 2019 (yikes).
So, how should Ryan Pace go about fixing the most glaring weakness on his roster?
Presenting a three-part plan to beef up Clancy Barone's tight end room:
1. Hang in with Mr. Hooper
The Falcons' Austin Hooper is the best fit for what the Bears need. He’s a highly productive receiver (146 catches, 1,447 yards, 10 TDs the last two years) who has the flexibility to play both the “U” (slot) and “Y” (in-line) tight end positions in Nagy’s offense.
