Chicago Bears begin 53-man cuts ahead of Tuesday's deadline, trimming depth across RB, WR and OL as injuries at cornerback and running back shape decisions. Austin Reed and Ian Wheeler were waived, Tre Flowers released, and the club weighs bubble players at several spots as Poles pursues best 53 with practice-squad candidates in mind. A likely three-quarterback approach looms, while trades and special-teams value could decide the final cuts.
