The Chicago Bears added some more speed to their wide receiver room with the signing of veteran Breshad Perriman to a one-year deal.
Prior to this, Chicago had five receivers on their initial 53-man roster, and it appears they decided to go with Perriman rather than rookie Dazz Newsome, who was waived and is a candidate to be signed to the practice squad. They also recently claimed wide receiver Nsimba Webster.
Twitter had plenty of reaction to the news, which included many noting Perriman’s impressive speed and others wondering if Perriman could plan cornerback, given that remains a need for Chicago. But, for the most part, Bears fans are happy with the move.
