The Bears set their 10-man practice squad on Monday.
ILB Jonathan Anderson, Texas Christian
ILB Lamin Barrow, LSU
T Nick Becton, Virginia Tech
DL Brandon Dunn, Louisville
CB Jacoby Glenn, Central Florida
RB/FB Paul Lasike, BYU
WR Jalen Saunders, Oklahoma
TE Gannon Sinclair, Missouri State
WR Ify Umodu, Northern Arizona
DL Terry Williams, East Carolina
Five players — Anderson, Dunn, Glenn, Umodu and Williams — were in training camp with the club before being waived Saturday. Sinclair was claimed off waivers last week, played in the exhibition finale and was waived Saturday.
Bear coach John Fox was coach of the Denver Broncos last year when they drafted Barrow in fifth round out of LSU.
Becton, an undrafted free agent in 2013, spent time on the New Orleans’ Saints’ active roster last season, when Bears general manager Ryan Pace was their director of player personnel. Bears director of player personnel Josh Lucas also was with the Saints when Becton was signed there.
Lasike, a New Zealand native, is an undrafted rookie out of BYU with a rugby background. The Arizona Cardinals cut him over the weekend.
Saunders joins his sixth organization since the New York Jets drafted him in the fourth round last year. Pace and the Saints signed him to New Orleans’ active roster last November after receiver Brandin Cooks was placed on injured reserve.
