The Chicago Bears have been aggre sive about adding defensive depth this summer.General manager Ryan Poles added defensive tackle Chris Williams and pa s rusher Darrell Taylor last week, but hes not done.In a move related to Zacch Pickenss groin injury (doubtful for the start of the regular season), Poles signed defensive lineman Robinson Chirinos Jersey Sam Roberts on Wednesday, snagging him away from the New England Patriots, whom Roberts has been with during preseason.News of the Bears signing Roberts ESPNs Adam Schefter.Former Patriots DL Sam Roberts is signing to the Bears practice squad with the intention of being called up for Week 1, per source, Schefter said.Roberts turned heads during the Patriots final preseason game when he made eight tackles against the Washington Commanders. Roberts, a sixth-round selection in the 2022 NFL Draft, joins Chicago having Brian McCann Jersey played in 12 games for the Patriots (one start).As Pickens works his way back into the fold, the Bears will rely on Roberts, whose value was not lost on some Patriots fans upset over his departure.Damn was hoping hed come back, wrote X user @TisTheJrueSZN, in response to Schefters post about Roberts.Arg!!!!!!! Surprisingly patriots let em go Andy Pettitte Jersey , added @13isLucky13.Roberts will carve out an imposing figure on Chicagos defensive line, standing at six-foot-five and 300 pounds.Theres a belief that Robertss full potential was not unleashed on the Patriots, something that the Bears have to look forward to. Erik Lambert of Sports Mockery commented on Robertss abilities in a on Wednesday.(Roberts) did have a sack and seven pre sures in 86 pa Anthony Gose Jersey s rush snaps between 2022 and 2023, Lambert said.There could still be some unexplored potential for the Bears to uncover. Ryan Poles knows hes putting Roberts in capable hands with Eric Washington and Travis Smith, two proven defensive line specialists. If they Preston Tucker Jersey can squeeze a pre sure or two out of him each week this season, this will be a great addition.Roberts is expected to play for the Bears in Week 1 versus the Tenne see Titans.More NFL:
