WATCH: Bears WR Tajae Sharpe makes insane sideline catch vs. Chiefs

The Chicago Bears have been ravaged by injuries at wide receiver, some minor and others more serious. But’s giving guys further down the depth chart more opportunities to make an impression.

Someone who’s taking full advantage of his opportunities has been veteran Tajae Sharpe, who’s been a standout at training camp since returning from the non-football injury (NFI) list. In particular, he’s developed a nice rapport with quarterback Justin Fields.

That connection was on display during Saturday’s preseason opener against the Kansas City Chiefs, where Sharpe made an unbelievable catch from Fields during the first quarter.

Sharpe made a nice adjustment on the ball and hauled it in down the right sideline for the 19-yard reception. You simply have to see it to believe it.

Outside of Darnell Mooney, the receiver group is wide open. Byron Pringle, Velus Jones Jr. and Equanimeous St. Brown all appear to be safe bets to make the roster, which leaves two spots up for grabs.

As Sharpe continues to impress, he’s certainly in the mix for one of those final roster spots.
