Report: Bears will pursue Chargers WR Vincent Jackson

The Chicago Bears are reportedly interested in pursuing San Diego Chargers wide receiver Vincent Jackson, who was not tagged as the team’s franchise player, according to ProFootballTalk.com.

Vaughn McClure of the Chicago Tribune also reported that the Bears are interested in Jackson.

At least Bears can pursue Vincent Jackson, who didn't get tagged. Jackson and Cliff Avril appeared to be the top two free agent targets.—

ESPN’s John Clayton also expects the Bears to “make a big run” at Jackson.

Jackson had 60 catches for over 1,100 yards and nine touchdowns last season in San Diego.
