Head coach Matt Eberflus said on Friday that the Bears would examine changes to their starting lineup, roster and strategy during a long weekend without a game. Receiver Ihmir Smith-Marsette was the first casualty Tuesday.
Smith-Marsette, whose two penalties against the Vikings helped to scuttle the Bears’ comeback, was cut Tuesday morning. The Bears promoted receiver Isaiah Coulter from the practice squad to take his place and filled their practice squad with tight end Sammis Reyes.
