Denver hosted seven players for workouts on Tuesday to bolster backfield, receiver, and tight end depth while trimming Quinton Newsome from the practice squad to open a spot. The visitor list features Tyrion Davis-Price and Deuce Vaughn at running back; Bryson Green, Samori Toure, and Thayer Thomas at wide receiver; Messiah Swinson and Cole Turner at tight end. The session underscores Denver's search for versatile depth ahead of a crowded AFC West slate and its ongoing practice-squad shuffling.

The Bears opened 53-man roster cuts, waiving Swayze Bozeman, Chris Glaser, Thomas Gordon, Mark Perry, Samori Toure and Jeremiah Walker, while placing corner Terell Smith on injured reserve after a season-ending knee injury in Week 2 against Buffalo.

Smith was a key depth piece behind Jaylon Johnson, Kyler Gordon and Tyrique Stevenson, so Chicago will lean on rookies and depth pieces as cuts continue. The move tightens WR and TE depth behind a veteran core, with Samori Toure among the notable cut casualties and further adjustments looming as the deadline nears.

Bears trims begin with Samori Toure release, narrowing a crowded WR room as 53-man cuts loom. Toure delivered as Packers castoff who stuck on Chicago’s practice squad last year, but depth battle leaves him on the outside with Moore, Odunze, Zaccheaus, and Duvernay ahead. Final WR spot likely to come down to Tyler Scott, Maurice Alexander, Miles Boykin, and Jahdae Walker.

Chicago’s veteran core—DJ Moore, Rome Odunze, Olamide Zaccheaus, Devin Duvernay—gives fantasy managers a clearer picture: Moore remains the primary target, while Burden III presents high upside as a rookie; Scott and Walker could surprise in the six-man rotation if Burden isn’t ready for Week 1. The shakeout signals the Bears’ intent to balance immediate production with young upside.

Overall, the move tightens Chicago’s WR landscape for fantasy and betting: Moore is the safe cash, Burden III the dart throw, and Scott/Walker as deeper sleepers depending on early-season usage and injuries in a pass-heavy offense.
