BEARS CAREER KICK RETURNING

The following list includes every Chicago Bear who at least had one kick return or some kick return yards.  Currently, there are 270 Bears in this dataset.  The players are sorted by yards.  Only a player's stats with the Bears are included; other teams that a player may have played for are ignored.  This includes when the Bears were known as the Staleys back in 1920-21.  There is a definite possibility of errors in this dataset due to 1) an error on my part, 2) the sources were in error, or 3) the sources didn't include a certain player.   Data did not exist before 1933 and only TD data was available from 1933-1940.   Players in bold are current players.
