Former Stephen F. Austin cornerback Jeremiah Walker earned a roster spot as a tryout player at the Bearsrookie minicamp.

The team added him Monday. To make room, they moved punter Tory Taylor to the exempt/international player list. Taylor, who is from Australia, will not count on the team’s 90-man roster because of the international exemption. He’ll continue to practice with the Bears as usual. Taylor is the only punter on the Bears roster and will be their starter when the season begins.

The Bears did the same thing with Taylor in July.
