Bears looking for a well-rounded tight end

Kellen Davis - TE - Chicago Bears

Feb. 15, 2013 - 11:45 AM ET

Bears TEs coach Andy Bischoff says the team needs a tight end that can "threaten the defense."

"We need a tight end that can create stress in the middle of the field," said Bischoff. "We need a receiver who can catch the ball and we need a receiver who can block enough to be lined up in the backfield." New OC Aaron Kromer had Jimmy Graham for the last three years in New Orleans. The Bears will be exploring all avenues for an upgrade on Kellen Davis.
