A Scout’s Take: Here’s what preseason taught us about the Chicago Bears

With Training Camp and the Preseason completed, the next event on the agenda is to cut the roster to 53 players by 3:00 p.m. (CT) this afternoon. Some like to call today the “final” cutdown, but realistically it’s far from that. What the roster looks like on Sunday, September 11th, will be different than it looks at 3:00 this afternoon.

There very well could be waiver claims, players placed on injured reserve, and trades, the purpose of which is to make the roster stronger for the regular season than it is right now. By the end of the week, we will know what this roster will look like.
