The Facts: Gage has been handed a starting wide receiver spot opposite Muhsin Muhammad in new coordinator Ron Turner's offense. Gage will occupy the position previously held by David Terrell. Gage will be ahead of Bernard Berrian on the depth chart when the Bears report to training camp on July 23.

Diehards Line:As a rookie in 2003, Gage had 17 catches for 338 yards and two touchdowns in John Shoop's offense. He finished last season with just 12 catches for 156 yards. He did not score a touchdown. But coaches are looking to get him on track this year. "There are certain things Justin Gage can do," receivers coach Darryl Drake said. "When we get in the red zone, throw it up to him. Give him the opportunity to make plays. Run him on some different things that he does well."
