Chicago Bears WR Eric Weems, WR Micheal Spurlock, WR Armanti Edwards, WR Chris X. Williams and RB Michael Ford are all in the mix for the kick and punt return jobs this season.

Footballguys view: The days of Devin Hester are long gone, and the Bears need to find a dangerous return man to aid their special teams. It will be interesting to see which one of these players stands out the most in training camp.

  Bears | Plenty of WRs duking it out    Sat Jun 7, 10:55 PM

The No. 4 and 5 wide receiver jobs for the Chicago Bears are up for grabs, with WRs Armanti Edwards, Josh Morgan, Micheal Spurlock, Terrence Toliver, Eric Weems and Chris Williams set to battle for jobs during training camp and the preseason.

Footballguys view: We'd like to see Toliver get a chance because of his athleticism and body control. Morgan has been a disappointment as a pro because of inconsistency, but he's arguably the most naturally talented player listed above.

  Lions | Trio battling for return work    Tue Aug 20, 08:34 PM

The punt and kick return jobs for the Detroit Lions appear to be down to RB Steven Miller or WR Patrick Edwards, as those two players have received a bulk of the work during the past two practices. WR Micheal Spurlock has also been in the mix.

Footballguys view: Edwards muffed two punts in practice on Sunday, but he got a chance to redeem himself in practice the next day. RB Steven Miller also worked on punts Monday, but fumbled one right into the hands of a gunner. The Lions need to clean this up before the start of the regular season. We like Edwards because of his big play ability and nose for the end zone but he won't get to return many kicks if he can't secure the football.

Footballguys view: Alexander was a top 5 wide receiver since becoming a starter five weeks ago. If anyone had a way to see this goose egg coming, please let us know what the powerball numbers will be next week.
