Chicago Bears 2020 Position Battles: Nagy will open with a whole new set of tight ends

Chicago’s tight end position in 2019 was such a train wreck that the Bears completely overhauled the group this offseason. The four guys they opened the season with a year ago are all gone; Trey Burton (cut), Ben Braunecker (cut), Adam Shaheen (traded), and Bradley Sowell (free agent).

As it stands right now the Bears only have six active tight ends on the roster, with one more on the reserve/COVID-19 list. Considering they opened each of the last two seasons with only four at the position, they’ll have some decisions to make in their roster make-up.
