Chicago Bears Roster Cuts: This is the perfect, final 53-man roster
By Ryan Heckman
The preseason is over. Just under two weeks from now, the regular season will kick off and football will be back. The Chicago Bears finished their preseason 2-1 with some great storylines that should play well into the final roster decisions.
Speaking of those decisions, the final roster cuts must be done by tomorrow at 3PM CST.
The Bears still have plenty of questions at several positions, so these cuts may not bring them to their final roster, just yet.
As other teams cut players around the league, the Bears should definitely be looking to add in some spots. But, for now, we look at the perfect, final roster for these Bears as things stand.
Chicago Bears final roster prediction: Quarterbacks, Running Backs
Quarterbacks: Andy Dalton, Justin Fields
This one is a no-brainer. The only question becomes when and where the Bears trade Nick Foles. Teams will hardly keep three quarterbacks on the roster anymore these days, and the Bears have their top two locked in with Andy Dalton and Justin Fields.
Running Backs: David Montgomery, Damien Williams, Khalil Herbert, Ryan Nall
This might not be as obvious, but the one thing which sticks out in the running back room is Ryan Nall. Keep in mind, Nall will only be hanging around long enough for Tarik Cohen to make his return.
Otherwise, it will be David Montgomery handling most of the touches. Damien Williams is a nice change-of-pace type back. Khalil Herbert will do most of his damage on special teams, returning kicks and whatnot.
