3. Keeping A.J. Thomas over a few players
The Bears chose to keep (a 2022 UDFA safety that was on the practice squad for most of last season) A.J. Thomas on the 53-man roster over keeping a few players on the bubble. The Bears carry four safeties on Tuesday.
The Bears chose to keep Thomas over another linebacker, wide receiver Daurice Fountain (who had an exceptional preseason), and cornerback Michael Ojemudia.
Thomas is a player one would think the Bears could retain on their practice squad after waivers. Several other safeties who performed well this month didn’t make the roster, like Adrian Colbert and Bralen Trahan, who could have been picked up on the practice squad if Thomas had signed elsewhere.
