The preseason is boring and doesn’t matter is what they tell us, but I dare them to say that to Ken Mastrole.
We’ve been talking about him for 16 years, along with his preseason teammate Kenny Christian. They are certainly among the two most famous Chicago Bears who were never officially Chicago Bears.
Way back in August of 2002, “The Two Kennys” were fighting to make the roster, Mastrole as the third quarterback, Christian as the fifth wide receiver. Against the Rams in the second preseason game, their shared legend was born on merely two completions: a 52-yarder on the game’s final drive, and a 15-yard touchdown.
