Farewell to Damiere Byrd. After a career year with the New England Patriots in 2020, the wideout has found a new home with the Chicago Bears.
Most fans probably don’t care, but others might be wondering why the Pats let him walk.
He was a reliable security blanket for Cam Newton, who had a lot of trouble throwing the ball last year.
There was clearly value in his rapport with the veteran QB after the two spent time together in Carolina.
