Devin Hester Update

Devin Hester
Rookie Devin Hester still
hasn't found a permanent position, but the second-round
draft choice from the University of Miami will be
Chicago's punt returner on Sunday against Green Bay. .
. .
A jack-of-all-trades with UM, Hester has worked at
cornerback during the preseason but isn't considered a
serious contender for playing time in Chicago's
secondary. Hester, though, is getting overtures from
Bears offensive coordinator Ron Turner and QB Rex
Grossman about making the conversion to wide receiver
after averaging 22.8 yards on six preseason returns.
"Grossman tells me, `You're in the wrong spot,"" Hester
told the Chicago Tribune. . .
