The Bears had seen enough of Chris Blewitt and compiled plenty of data on him to decide to cut him prior to Wednesday’s veteran minicamp practice, this after he was part of disappointing back-to-back-to-back misses in the middle of Tuesday’s practice at Halas Hall. Matt Nagy said, though, the Bears weren’t trying to send a message to Elliott Fry and Eddy Pineiro by jettisoning Blewitt in the middle of veteran minicamp.
“That wasn’t the intention, but at the same time that’s what they see, that’s what our team sees,” Nagy said. “And so now today, when they’re put in a similar situation as yesterday and knowing what happened yesterday or this morning, then you understand that it naturally just creates more pressure.
