The Chicago Bears likely aren't done tweaking their roster as expectations remain high they'll be active on waiver claims.

“I WOULD BE A LITTLE SURPRISED IF THE BEARS MADE A WHOLE SLEW OF WAIVER CLAIMS, BUT
I’D BE WILLING TO BET THEY WILL MAKE THREE OR FOUR.
ONE POSITION I WONDER ABOUT IS THE SWING TACKLE SPOT. LARRY BOROM HAS BEEN WORKING AS THE BACKUP LEFT TACKLE. IF THE BEARS ARE NOT SOLD ON HIM, THAT COULD BE ONE POSITION WHERE THEY SCAN THE WAIVER WIRE FOR HELP. THEY ALSO COULD BRING IN A VETERAN CUT LOOSE BY ANOTHER TEAM WHO IS NOT SUBJECT TO WAIVERS.
WITH THE EXCEPTION OF SIGNING DEFENSIVE END YANNICK NGAKOUE, IT’S FAIR TO SAY MOST OF THE RECENT MOVES HAVE BEEN DUE TO ATTRITION AND INJURIES. I DOUBT THEY ADD A TIGHT END AFTER SIGNING MARCEDES LEWIS, BUT MOST OF THE OTHER POSITIONS ARE NOT SO STACKED THAT THEY SHOULDN’T CONSIDER THE POSSIBILITY OF ADDITIONS. IT WILL BE INTERESTING TO SEE WHAT SHAKES OUT AROUND CUT TIME, BUT I DEFINITELY WOULD KEEP AN EYE OUT FOR A MOVE FOR A SWING TACKLE.”
