Did the Bears just sign their new punt returner?

When the Bears signed veteran Dwayne Harris to the practice squad late Monday, it might have marked the end — or, at least, the beginning of the end — for punt returner Ted Ginn.

In nine seasons — four with the Cowboys, three with the Giants and two with the Raiders — Harris has returned 180 punts for an average of 10.1 yards. In 2018, his average of 14.1 yards over 20 returns led the NFL. He also had a 99-yard touchdown return, his only career punt-game score.

At 33, Harris is exclusively a retunrer at this point.
