With Marquess Wilson suffering a broken clavicle this week that required surgery, the Chicago Bears have added a receiver to their roster to bolster their depth at the position.

The team announced they have signed receiver Greg Herd and waived linebacker Conor O’Neill.

Herd signed with the Seattle Seahawks last year after going undrafted out of Eastern Washington University. He was released with an injury settlement last August and also spent some time with the Dallas Cowboys.

Herd caught 165 passes for 2,348 yards and 17 touchdowns in his final three collegiate seasons.
