The ace of the Bears' much-improved third phase, Cordarrelle Patterson on Friday was named a member of the 2019 Associated Press All Pro team as the first-team kick returner and second-team special teamer.
A seven-year veteran, Patterson is an AP All Pro for the fifth time, and in November he became the first Bear since Devin Hester to earn Special Teams Player of the Month, after taking his seventh career kickoff back for a touchdown. His next kickoff return TD would tie Patterson with Josh Cribbs and Leon Washington for the most ever.
