Eric Saubert
Eric Saubert, a former fifth-round pick by the Atlanta Falcons, hasn’t been able to find his footing in the NFL. The Bears signed Saubert off the Las Vegas Raiders’ practice squad on Nov. 30 following Braunecker’s concussion against Giants a week earlier. Saubert saw action in Chicago’s final two games, where he had two receptions for 21 yards.
Given the crowded tight ends room and essentially just one roster spot up for grabs, it’s not likely that Saubert secures that spot. But he’ll surely be a candidate for Chicago’s practice squad.
