The Chicago Bears have decisions at defensive end and wide receiver, among others.
Chicago Bears general manager Ryan Poles, coach Matt Eberflus and their staffs got to work trimming the roster Sunday with two major moves — cutting backup quarterback P.J. Walker and offensive lineman Alex Leatherwood.
Robinson, the 2022 fifth-round pick who converted to defense midway through his college career, is still growing and the Bears could want to see that through. Gipson, whom the former Bears regime drafted in the fifth round in 2020, had two sacks and four quarterback hits in the preseason, including a strip-sack Saturday against the Bills.
Behind those three, there are some questions about who will get opportunities among a group that includes Velus Jones Jr., rookie Tyler Scott, Equanimeous St. Brown, Nsimba Webster and Daurice Fountain. When the Bears placed Dante Pettis on injured reserve last week, it made the situation a little clearer. Pettis had special teams value because he could return punts, but his injury probably made the decision to keep Scott, Jones and St. Brown easier.4. How do the Bears see their running back depth chart?
Khari Blasingame will return as the Bears’ fullback, and Travis Homer, who brings special teams prowess, is the other likely to make the roster. Trestan Ebner, who has been out with an injury, is a player who might be the odd man out.Chicago Bears' Noah Sewell is carted off the field during the second half of an NFL preseason football game against the Buffalo Bills on Aug. 26, 2023.
