DABEARSDABOMB Posted March 10, 2016 Report Share Posted March 10, 2016 Marc Mariani - WR - Bears At least four teams have shown interest in free agent WR Marc Mariani. Chicago is one of those teams. Mariani was forced into a bigger role last year because of injuries to Alshon Jeffery and Eddie Royal. He managed 22 catches for 300 yards over the course of 535 offensive snaps. Even in a thin wide receiver market, it shouldn't cost the Bears much to keep him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not much injury history and shown he could be a good slot receiver. Probably not much use as a STeamer though. Considering that Thompson showed some promise in the return game, is younger and they just resigned Bellamy could make Mariani expendable.

Not much injury history? Prior to coming to the Bears he was out of football for a year because of injury! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fair enough but I was thinking more with the Bears and somewhat qualified it with 'much'. Since on the subject, same could be said about Jaquizz (injury history)...
