Nikola Kalinic: Goes back to practice squad
Kalinic reverted to Chicago's practice squad Monday, per the NFL's transaction log.
Kalinic was elevated for the Bears' wild-card win over Green Bay on Saturday and logged 15 snaps, all of which came on special teams. The Bears are set at tight end with Colston Loveland, Cole Kmet and Durham Smythe, so if Kalinic is elevated again for the divisional round against the Rams, he'd figure to work exclusively on special teams again.

Bears' Nikola Kalinic: Gets Week 12 elevation
The Bears elevated Kalinic from their practice squad Saturday ahead of Sunday's matchup versus Pittsburgh.
This is Kalinic's first elevation of the campaign after he signed with Chicago's practice squad in late August. The 28-year-old has played in nine career NFL games -- seven in 2022 with Indianapolis and two in 2024 with the Rams -- and has yet to see a passing target. The Bears have three other healthy tight ends (Cole Kmet, Colston Loveland and Durham Smythe) on the roster, so Kalinic could be on the outside looking in for any offensive snaps Sunday.
