Bears' Bravvion Roy: Claimed off waivers by Chicago
The Bears claimed Roy off waivers from the Panthers on Tuesday, Cameron Wolfe of NFL Network reports.
Roy was waived Monday, likely due to the Panthers' switch to a 3-4 scheme under new defensive coordinator Ejiro Evero. The 2020 sixth-round pick was a solid rotational player during his three seasons in Carolina and figures to compete for a depth spot in Chicago.

Bravvion Roy: Gets let go
Roy was waived by the Panthers on Monday.

Roy will start in place of the injured Zach Kerr (toe) during Thursday night's matchup against the Falcons.
The rookie from Baylor has earned his first NFL start, and he will do so playing for his former college coach, Matt Rhule. Despite questions regarding a lack of overall experience, Carolina's scoring defense has proven surprisingly steady, ranking 13th in the league heading into Week 8. The rush defense, in particular, has been spotty, however, allowing the fifth-most rushing yards (751) and the second-highest total of rushing touchdowns to opposing backs.
