Earl Bennett caught two passes for 18 yards and one touchdown in Week 14 against the Cowboys. They were the only two targets Bennett saw on the night. He's reeled in two passes of less in 11-of-13 games this season and obviously isn't a fantasy option. Bennett's touchdown came from four yards out on the opening drive.

Earl Bennett caught two passes for 17 yards in the Bears' Week 13 loss to the Vikings. A distant fifth on Chicago's passing-game totem pole behind Brandon Marshall, Alshon Jeffery, Matt Forte, and Martellus Bennett, slot receiver Earl isn't even worth rostering in 14- or 16-team re-draft fantasy leagues.

Earl Bennett caught eight passes for 58 yards in Chicago's Week 12 loss to the Rams. The outburst came after Bennett entered Week 12 having cleared neither four catches nor 30 yards in a game. It's not a repeatable effort in a passing attack that has to feed Brandon Marshall, Alshon Jeffery, Martellus Bennett and Matt Forte on a weekly basis.

Earl Bennett was held without a catch in Week 9 against the Packers. Bennett wasn't targeted a single time, even though Josh McCown threw 41 passes. He simply plays a very small role on offense. Bennett has just 11 catches on the season and is obviously not on the fantasy radar.

Earl Bennett caught two passes for 19 yards and a touchdown in Chicago's Week 4 loss to the Lions. Bennett's 10-yard score came deep into garbage time. Fifth on Jay Cutler's targets totem pole, Bennett is on pace for just 28 catches and 264 yards. He remains well off the fantasy radar.

Earl Bennett caught two passes for 22 yards and a touchdown in Chicago's Week 3 win over the Steelers. Bennett continues to have a limited role in the Bears' offense, but managed to make an impressive 17-yard touchdown catch in the left corner of the end-zone late in the fourth quarter. He remains off the fantasy radar and is behind Brandon Marshall, Alshon Jeffery, and Martellus Bennett for targets.

Earl Bennett caught two passes for 19 yards in Chicago's Week 2 win over the Vikings. Bennett now has three catches through two games. Fifth, at best, on the Bears' targets totem pole, Bennett won't be heard from much this season.

Earl Bennett agreed to a $1 million pay cut with the Bears, slashing his 2013 base salary from $2.25 million to $1.25 million. The rest of Bennett's contract was untouched. He's still signed through 2015, though this could easily be his last season in Chicago. Bennett is no higher than the No. 4 or 5 option in the passing game as the slot receiver.

Earl Bennett (concussion) is practicing in full this week. OC Aaron Kromer hinted Bennett's role will likely be limited against the Bengals. "He's not one of the two starters obviously, but he'll be working in and getting his reps and we'll see how he does," Kromer said. "If he does well, he'll play more; if he doesn't, we'll see who else we can get." Even healthy, the majority of Bennett's slot targets are likely to go to Martellus Bennett and Matt Forte.

Bears WR Earl Bennett (concussion) has resumed practicing. Despite admitting to "headaches" and "difficulty sleeping" post-concussion, Bennett says he's been symptom free for "a couple days now" and believes he'll play in Week 1. He's the slot man between Brandon Marshall and Alshon Jeffery, although Bennett's role will be small behind Martellus Bennett, as well.
