Bears Set 53-Man Roster

The Bears get their season underway Sunday night against the Green Bay Packers this (7:00 p.m., NBC) and now we know which men will be on the sidelines. The Bears kept only two QBs - Cutler and Caleb Hanie - sending Brett Basanez to the practice squad. Wide receiver Devin Aromashodu's flower gifts seem to have worked; he was one of six receivers that made the cut. Three players were placed on IR: Running back Kevin Jones (knee), safety Dahna Deleston (hamstring), and defensive end Henry Melton (ankle).

Poor Mike Brown. He's fought a host of injuries in his time with the Bears: Achilles, calf, Lisfranc fracture, and knee. And now a calf injury that has been bothering Brown off-and-on all season has led to Brown once again being placed on injured reserve, ending his season regardless of whether or not the Bears make the playoffs. Brown left the Packers game Monday night and was replaced by Craig Steltz. To fill the roster hole, the Bears have re-signed Cameron Worrell.
