I think that's exactly what they thought.



Actually, I thought he played 14 games last year which is even more impressive. The thing is that Iwuh can do everything Shaw does and play linebacker effectively. With the Bears adding a RB (Taylor) a TE (Manumaleuna) and a QB (Collins) They only have so many spots to work with. Shaw, sadly, is just a victim of too much depth at one position.
