Hibner has exceeded expectations in Doyle's multi-tight-end Bears scheme.

Matt Hibner, a young tight end brought into Chicago's offense under new play caller Declan Doyle, has exceeded expectations; the source initially had questions about Hibner's skill set but was impressed after watching the first quarter of the Colts game, suggesting Doyle's scheme effectively utilizes multiple tight ends in a way that maximizes Hibner's role.
