There wasn't a ton to get excited about beyond Tarik Cohen from the Bears' passing attack in Week 1, and they also suffered the misfortune of losing Kevin White to a broken collarbone.
The wide receiver depth chart in Chicago is pretty barren right now, which means they're not likely to have much success in the real world, but that also means there should be plenty of volume to go around moving forward -- especially with an unsustainable 65% of their Week 1 targets having gone to either running backs or tight ends.
Kendall Wright is the only wide receiver on the team who has really proven himself at the NFL level, with a trio of 50-plus reception seasons to his name. With career special-teamer Deonte Thompson as his primary competition for targets on the outside, Wright may be able to rack up a big reception total over the rest of the season.
