The Bears have signed Devin Duvernay, a highly regarded return specialist, to leverage this new rule, boosting their special teams' potential impact on games. Hightower expressed enthusiasm about the opportunity to revolutionize the game and coach a team that's expected to see more exciting kickoff returns starting in 2025.
