The Chicago Bears have brought in former Tennessee Titans return specialist Darius Reynaud for a workout as they search for a replacement for Devin Hester in 2014. Hester left in free agency and eventually landed with the Atlanta Falcons and that has put the Bears in a situation where they need a replacement.

According to Adam Caplan of ESPN, that could be Reynaud.

He’s hardly a name that sets your world on fire, but he know his craft and can return kicks with the best of them. That’s really all the Bears need out of him and he’d come dirt cheap as well.

But with the NFL Draft around the corner, there’s a chance the Bears could snag themselves a return man who doubles as a deadly prospect somewhere else on the field as well. That still could be a scenario where Reynaud is brought in anyways, but there seems to be interest in him and if his visit with the Bears goes well, Chicago may not be the only one to ring him up with interest.
