Riley Ridley: Cut loose by Bears
Riley Ridley was cut by the Bears on Tuesday, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.The 2019 fourth-round pick is perhaps best known to NFL fans as the younger brother of Falcons wideout Calvin Ridley. It's even possible the two could be reunited in the coming days, given Atlanta's poor depth at the position. Then again, Ridley couldn't win a spot on a Chicago team that has the same problem, seemingly losing out to Marquise Goodwin, Damiere Byrd and perhaps Dazz Newsome.

Bears' Riley Ridley: On roster bubble
Riley Ridley is battling with Javon Wims, Rodney Adams and Chris Lacy for a roster spot, Adam Jahns of The Athletic reports.Ridley caught one pass for 17 yards but committed a false-start penalty on the following play while being on the field for just 20 snaps in the preseason opener. After being selected in the fourth round of the 2019 Draft, he's caught just 10 passes for 108 yards while being inactive for 22 of 32 games. Even if he makes the regular-season roster, he'll likely find it difficult to be on the field for a significant number of snaps unless the team suffers a number of injuries at wide receiver.
