Driver Expands Comments

Instead of backing down on his comments about the Chicago Bears, Green Bay Packers wide receiver Donald Driver has expanded upon his comments when talking to a Chicago radio station. He specifically addressed the fact that the Bears are saying that Devin Hester is set to be the number one wide receiver this season. Driver said, “They don’t have any true receivers that step up and play and take their team to where they want to go. I love Devin, and Devin knows that, but Devin plays, I don’t think he’s just a solid receiver right now. He may become one as years go on, but it doesn’t happen overnight.”

Driver has a long history of playing against the Bears as he has been with the Green Bay Packers since he entered the league in 1999. The wide receiver had the luxury of being Brett Favre’s target, which obviously didn’t hurt his stats. The Packers now have quarterback Aaron Rodgers at the helm, with Driver as one of his top targets last season. In 2008, Driver had 74 receptions, 1,012 yards and five touchdowns. He will likely be looking to pad his stats more against the Bears this season, and you can be there by getting Chicago Bears tickets from StubHub.
