The Bears shuffled their 53-man roster ahead of Saturday's home finale at Soldier Field.

In a series of roster moves, the Bears signed running back Bralon Addison to the active roster, waived offensive lineman Cornelius Edison and placed wide receiver Eddie Royal on injured reserve.

Addison, an undrafted rookie out of the University of Oregon, was signed by the Denver Broncos following the 2016 NFL Draft and spent preseason with the team before he was waived prior to Week 1. During his time at Oregon, Addison appeared in 39 games and registered 146 catches for 1,937 yards and 20 touchdowns. He also added two rushing and three punt return scores.
