After his stellar debut on Monday Night Football, the Chicago Bears have signed rookie cornerback Thomas Graham Jr. to their 53-man roster from the practice squad. Against the Vikings Graham tallied 7 tackles and had 3 passes defended, and Pro Football Focus said that Graham “had one of the best rookie debuts of 2021” as they gave him a 90.1 grade.
Graham was a sixth round pick of the Bears out of Oregon, and after being in their last wave of cuts before the 2021 season began, the Bears signed him to their practice squad where he has been all season.
