Marshall: 'Wilson is exciting'

Chicago Bears wide receiver Brandon Marshall has admitted that he is looking forward to seeing what Marquess Wilson will be able to do in 2014 after the club released Earl Bennett.

With Bennett no longer with the Bears, last season's Draft pick Wilson will be the third-choice wideout and Marshall said that he is particularly impressed with the youngster's strength.

"I really want to talk about Marquess Wilson," Marshall told NBC Sports. "He came down and trained with us the whole off-season.

"We're really looking for him to do some big things. This guy, he's probably the steal of the draft last year. I'm going to say that. He came in, he put in the work, he looks like a body builder. Fast, strong, explosive. I'm looking forward to seeing him in OTAs."

Marshall finished last season with 1,295 yards from 100 receptions for the Bears.
