Is Khalil Herbert leader to return kicks for Chicago Bears
Chicago Bears - Kamil Krzaczynski-USA TODAY Sports
The Chicago Bears did not quite figure out how to use Cordarelle Patterson on offense. However, it is hard to say that he was a disaster signing due to his kickoff return prowess. Patterson is consistently one of the best returners and in both seasons with Chicago had a return for a touchdown.
Without Patterson, the Bears are going to have to find some way to make up what is a bigger loss than some fans may realize. Matt Nagy was asked about the situation, and while he noted that he expects competition, he only mentioned one person by name. That would be rookie Khalil Herbert.
