“You can never have enough weapons and guys that help your quarterback gain confidence,” Bears first-year general manager Ryan Poles told reporters on Tuesday. “I know a lot of the guys are starting to make plays for us. Adding another receiver is going to allow him to continue to grow and gain that confidence.”
