Ranking 15 Chicago Bears bubble players fighting for final 8 roster spots
9. The Chicago Bears just added Logan Stenberg
The Chicago Bears just added Logan Stenberg, but here is at number nine, when the top eight players are going to make the roster. Stenberg was a former fourth-round pick by the Detroit Lions. He started last season, and while that did not go well, the team needs him as depth and not a starter.
Beyond that, he started the first two weeks, struggled, and then came back for two spot starts later in the season and played much better. So, there is potential, and the Bears are taking a swing.
The top five starters are locked in, and Lucas Patrick is the swing interior lineman, with Larry Borom backing up both tackles. So, the eighth spot is probably going to Ja'Tyre Carter, who started the preseason opener.
The question is whether the Chicago Bears keep nine linemen and if Stenberg is the ninth. Alex Leatherwood is in the mix, but the question with him is whether the team is over that experiment or not. If they are, you can easily make the case for Stenberg. Of course, he also has to play a snap for the Bears first, so we will see how that goes and take it from there.
