Brad Biggs, Chicago Tribune Writer, tweeted Josh is fielding punts with Hester today. Great news he is getting some looks on special teams.
Yeah, I count 12 WRs on the 90 man roster. So Lenz would need to pass about half of them in the preseason games to make the cut.
Yeah, I think that teams keep 5-6 WRs, so while I hope he makes it, it doesn't look good. Gotta turn some heads as a backup (to Hester) PR/KR.
Returned a punt for 10 yards tonight.
Lenz survived the first round of cuts. Still a longshot to make team probably but hopefully he can sneak onto the practice squad.
Bears are announcing most of their cuts today, two days ahead of league deadline. Still one more player to be cut.
Perhaps significant that Aromashadu (sp?) was cut ahead of Lenz. Good news.
2013 Bears Roster Cuts: Bears Roster Down to 76; Aromashodu, Miller Among Cuts - Windy City Gridiron
How many WR do NFL teams typically hold on their 53-man? I was thinking 6-7?
I think a few years ago aromashodu was cut because he wasn't willing to learn to play slot receiver or do special teams. Bad attitude iirc.
