Former Green Bay Packers receiver Samori Toure’s NFL journey will take him to Chicago, where he is signing with the Bears practice squad on Wednesday, per Adam Schefter of ESPN.
The Packers released Toure, a 2022 seventh-round pick, during final cuts on Tuesday.
While he flashed early in his career, Toure never took a significant developmental step and got passed up on the receiver depth chart. By training camp’s end, Toure was no higher than No. 8 at receiver in Green Bay. The Packers kept Bo Melton and Malik Heath behind the top four of Christian Watson, Romeo Doubs, Jayden Reed and Dontayvion Wicks.
