Bears will install a “Devin package” on offense

Found April 30, 2012 on Pro Football Zone: Yardbarker Blogger Network
PLAYERS: Devin Hester
TEAMS: Chicago Bears
Bears_vs_browns_7b5c
According to Brad Biggs of the Chicago Tribune, despite the additions the Chicago Bears have made to their receiving core through free agency and the draft, Devin Hester still remains a big part of their plans.  General manager Phil Emery has indicated that they will have a special “Devin package” installed in this offense this season. “Devin’s role has not changed,” said Emery. “We see him as a guy that is going to help our receiving corps in a big way. I know that Coach Tice has done a lot of planning. We want to make sure that we have a special plan for Devin, we have the Devin Package, a package of plays as a receiver. You never know where he is going to line up.” Having a package for Hester is nice, but the Bears need to make sure he’s the only guy returning punts and kicks because that’s where he’s the most dangerous.
