The Bears need help at wide receiver, and on Wednesday, they reportedly made a move to get it. 

According to ESPN's Adam Schefter, the Bears acquired wide receiver Dontrelle Inman from the Los Angeles Chargers in exchange for a seventh-round draft pick. The 6-foot-3, 189 pound Inman caught 58 passes on 97 targers for 810 yards and four touchdowns for the Chargers in 2016, but has been liminted to two catches on four targets for nine yards this year. Inman underwent surgery for a sports hernia last offseason and was limited by a groin injury earlier this year. 

The 28-year-old Inman produced well in place of an injured Keenan Allen last year, but saw his role decrease in 2017 behind Allen, Travis Benjamin and Tyrell Williams.
