It's no big deal to hear about Jay Cutler inviting his Bears teammates to his offseason home in Nashville to run some routes. What is a big deal is the presence of Kevin White, who missed his entire rookie season with a shin injury.

In a recent feature on White, the Chicago Tribune's Rich Campbell provided a detailed look at how White has recovered from surgery. In that article was an interesting nugget about White joining the Bears' receiving crew in Nashville.

"When the Bears report to Halas Hall on Monday for strength and conditioning workouts, the asterisk next to Kevin White's name will be gone. No limitations. Those loathsome days of being singled out as physically unable to perform are done."

"Finally, White can revert his energy back toward the big question that surrounded his jump to the pros last spring -- his ability to run a variety of routes."
