With the deadline to cut the Bears roster down from 90 players to 75 on Tuesday, the Bears got a head start on trimming the roster down this Sunday cutting ten players. With 80 players now on the roster, they still have some work to do but made the majority of their cuts today. One potential reason for cutting players early is that it increases the chance they can re-sign them to the practice squad, while other teams are still trying to figure out who they want to release.
There are definitely a few players the Bears may try to re-sign and I’ll highlight those in my breakdown of the ten players released today.
