“After upgrading the roster on both sides of the ball, the Chicago Bears hope to be in more close games in 2023, the kind in which a key play here or there on special teams can make the difference,” writes BradBiggs.
Running back Khalil Herbert missed an assignment resulting in a blocked punt that was returned for a touchdown in a 35-32 loss to the Miami Dolphins, and the Atlanta Falcons’ Cordarrelle Patterson had a 103-yard kickoff return for a touchdown in a 27-24 Bears loss.
Seven of the top 12 special teams players in terms of snaps were rookies: cornerbacks Josh Blackwell and Jaylon Jones, linebackers Sterling Weatherford and Jack Sanborn, safety Elijah Hicks, running back Trestan Ebner and punter Trenton Gill. Of the five veterans with the most snaps, fullback Khari Blasingame is the only one returning in 2023.
