The Chicago Bears are signing former Patriots receiver Damiere Byrd to a one-year deal, according to multiple reports on Tuesday.
This signing should help a certain area of need for the Bears offense this upcoming season. In 2020, Byrd registered a career-high 47 catches for 604 yards and a touchdown. His numbers were decent despite being in the Patriots' 30th ranked offense. He had just one drop in 31 targets that were 10+ yards. In 44 career games between the Panthers and Patriots, the 28-year-old has 91 catches for 1,092 yards and four touchdowns. Byrd played football during his college days at South Carolina. Our WR room just got even ????????????. ??
