Kyle Fuller went into the 2017 season with everything to lose. He’d missed all of 2016 with a knee injury. His up to that point was a roller coaster at best. People were starting to wonder if the former Chicago Bears 1st round pick was a bust. If he didn’t deliver, there was little hope of him landing a lucrative new contract. After surviving early competitions in camp, it became clear that not only was he back healthy but in fact better than ever.
Fuller had two interceptions, 22 passes defender and finished second on the team in tackles last season. It was a remarkable turnaround for him and ended up leading to his new four-year, $56 million deal. The only thing left to question was whether that new money might make him complacent. Based on early impressions from Bears training camp, that should not be a concern. Fuller is playing with more confidence than ever and is poised for a breakout year.
