Summary

- Devin Duvernay and Tyler Scott battling for kickoff return job
As the Chicago Bears gear up for their first padded training camp practice on Monday, the team's roster battles are heating up. According to a recent report by Chicago Sun-Times analyst Patrick Finley, the Bears are expected to carry three quarterbacks, with starter Caleb Williams facing competition for the backup role from Tyson Bagent and veteran Case Keenum.
In the running back group, rookie draft pick Kyle Monangai's impressive performance in camp could convince the Bears to keep four running backs, joining starter David Montgomery, Khalil Herbert, and special teams ace Trestan Ebner. Meanwhile, the wide receiver battle is centered around the kickoff return job, with Devin Duvernay and Tyler Scott vying for the role that could prove crucial under the new kickoff rules.
These position battles are shaping the Bears' projected 53-man roster as the team looks to begin a new era under head coach Matt Eberflus. While some surprises are expected, the Bears' front office will have a clearer picture of their roster in the weeks ahead.
