The Chicago Bears have identified their final (for now) 53-man roster. Come inside for details...
For the first time this season, the Chicago Bears have arrived at their 53-man gameday roster. This is obviously subject to change one the waiver wire is looked at, but for now, they have hit the 53 player maximum for ahead of the 3pm deadline.
A look by position:

QB (3) | Jay Cutler, Jimmy Clausen, David Fales |
RB (4) | Matt Forte, Jacquizz Rodgers, Jeremy Langford, Ka'Deem Carey |
WR (6) | Alshon Jeffery, Eddie Royal, Marquess Wilson, Marc Mariani, Josh Bellamy, Cameron Meredith, Kevin White* (PUP) |
TE (3) | Martellus Bennett, Khari Lee, Zach Miller |

I say "initial" 53 because, of course, for the next few days, players will fly on and off waivers as teams pick through the recently-cut to add to their own squads, as well as adding players to their 10-man practice squads.
