The Chicago Bears must cut their roster to 75 by 4 p.m. ET Tuesday and to 53 by 4 p.m. ET Saturday (Sept. 3). Here’s a final 53-man roster projection:
Connor Shaw had a super preseason, but his injury removes him from roster consideration. David Fales could land on the practice squad again.
The Bears kept four tailbacks last year. Howard takes the roster spot left by Matt Forte.
FULLBACK (1): Paul Lasike
The Bears terminated the contract of vested veteran fullback Darrell Young on Sunday.
