I don't think we know for sure what he is yet. He hasn't lived up to what we thought he was going to be but with the injury this year I'm not sure if he's a compete bust yet. I need to see one more full season of him.

There's no reason to get rid of him now. He's still on his rookie contract so he's cheap. I see no reason to really worry about him playing the rest of this season. Let him sit out and stay healthy so he doesn't have any excuses next year. If he still isn't working out next preseason then you can cut his ass.

That's pretty much his saving grace Hawk. He's cheap and we're plum low on DBs with any kind of experience good or bad. I think they'd like him to play if only to evaluate him but it won't make a whole lot of difference one way or the other.

They aren't gonna just let him go but what they do need to know is can this kid actually play CB in this defense or not? He struggles with man coverage when he as to play with his back to the ball yet he's a bit undersized for FS where he actually should thrive IMHO.

All I can say it to date he's more or less been another disappointing pick from the Emery era much like McClellin and in both of those drafts we passed up players who are Pro Bowlers now or have been to take those two.

Well that fat lady just sang on Fuller's season. I have to wonder why Fox thought he'd only be out for 3 weeks back in Sept. Either the guy just lies through his teeth or he hasn't a clue about the severity of his players injuries or what to do to help prevent them relative to conditioning or whatever else might be looked at.

When you have 19 players on the IR something isn't right.

Bears CB Kyle Fuller placed on IR, will miss 2016 season
by Chris Kwiecinski

Three weeks after the Bears designated Kyle Fuller to return off of injured reserve, his season has ended.

The Bears placed Fuller on the injured reserved list, ending the third-year pro's season before it could even begin.

John Fox announces #Bears will revert Kyle Fuller back to IR.
— Chicago Bears (@chicagobears) December 21, 2016

Fuller had a knee scope before the season began, and was originally expected to miss up to three weeks. However, he was activated from IR on Dec. 1, making him the Bears designated player to return from injured reserve.

This week, it was debated whether or not Fuller would return because Fuller himself didn't think he was ready to get back on the field.

His placement on injured reserve makes him the 19th player on the list, which now leads the NFL.

Kyle Fuller becomes player No. 19 to #Bears’ IR list. So they’re leading league in at least one category at this point.
— Arthur Arkush (@arthurarkush) December 21, 2016

Fuller has six career interceptions in his two years on the field, making him one of the most experienced players in the Bears' secondary. His absence leaves a hole in the talent and depth of Chicago's secondary, not only for the last two games of this season, but for the foreseeable future. It's anyone's guess as to whether Fuller will be back with the Bears in 2017.

I've never seen an injury year like this on the Bears. Not in 55 years of watching the team.

It Looks like Fuller isn't willing to Play... like he quit?

Pretty much. Which is why I wonder if its worth bringing him back. He has shown no willingness to come back.

Its time to accept that he was a bust and move on.

Actually if you listen to recent comments by Fangio & Fox , they both flamed him . I been saying it for a long time now , the kids a sissy fb player .
