Welcome Back Rashied Davis
The Chicago Bears have announced that they have signed wide receiver Rashied Davis to a 1-year deal. The name may sound familiar and yes it should. Davis started his NFL career with the Bears after coming over from the Arena football league. Davis manly plays on special teams now with wide receiving in his pocket.
Davis played for the Bears for 6 seasons and after leaving them for 1 season, he played with the rival Detroit Lions.
Davis started off his career with the Bears and was a wide receiver target. But now, Davis mostly makes his name on special teams. He’s a great guy to have on special teams. I thought the Bears would have kept the open spot of the Devin Thomas retiring for a guy like Dane Sanzenbacher.
Sanzenbacher has been working on special teams and is trying anyway to make the team. If Sanzenbacher can play on special teams, I think he would be more valuable than Davis. However, since Davis knows Dave Toub’s scheme on special teams, he has the heads up in the running. If Sanzenbacher does not make the Bears 53-man roster, he will be lost. There’s no way he can sneak to the Bears practice squad with no team picking his up. There is no chance that will happen.
Davis and special teams coach Toub reportedly kept in touch over the off-season. That means, both parties wanted to have a reunion and it looks like it did happen. I do see Davis making the team and being the 6th wide receiver too.
