13. Chris Finke

When you look at the wide receiver depth chart, it is easy to think that Chris Finke would be the most likely to stick on the practice squad. The team has five players who are pretty much locked to make the roster. N’Keal Harry will go the IR, but will also be the sixth player to make the initial 53 at WR.

This leaves five wide receivers who could make the practice squad. Tajae Sharpe is a veteran and dealing with an injury., He appears to be a player who would make the roster, get placed on IR, or move on.

Nsimba Webster is just a return man and has shown very little at wide receiver. Isaiah Coulter Is a great option but was a leftover from the Ryan Pace regime, so he may look for a different situation. Then, there is Kevin Shaa, a UDFA rookie.

Shaa could be the safer bet because of his age, but Finke brings a similar skill set and has been ahead of him on the depth chart.

Next. 5 players on the roster bubble. dark

Beyond that, Finke has allegiance to Ryan Poles, coming from Kansas City, while these others are just looking at the best situation. If any WR who gets cut is expected to make the team it should be Finke.
