Green with envy? Eyeing stability, Bears collect Packers on offense

Packers tight ends Robert Tonyan and Marcedes Lewis celebrate a touchdown against the Bears in 2021.

The Bears’ offense is slowing turning green.

When general manager Ryan Poles signed tight end Marcedes Lewis on Saturday, he gave the Bears their fourth former Packers player on that side of the ball. The four — receiver Equanimeous St. Brown, backup guard/center Lucas Patrick and tight ends Robert Tonyan and Lewis — have a combined 19 years of experience as cogs in the Bears’ rival. Add offensive coordinator Luke Getsy — who spent seven years in Green Bay, including three as Aaron Rodgers’ quarterbacks coach — and the Bears start to look even more like the team up north.
