Martellus Bennett

He then moved to the Chicago Bears and in 2014 has 90 catches, 916 yards, and 6 touchdowns, earning his first and only Pro Bowl selection.
His career highlights also include winning Super Bowl LI with the New England Patriots during the 2016 season. After a brief stint with the Green Bay Packers in 2017, he returned to the Patriots but retired after the 2017 season.
