The NFL’s 100th season happens this year. The league’s 100th anniversary happens next year https://www.thebearsfanshop.com/Roquan-Smith-Jersey , in September.And the league will be staging in Canton, Ohio a multi-day centennial celebration in September 2020. But the celebration won’t include a regular-season game at Tom Benson Hall of Fame Stadium in Canton.Peter King of reported Monday that the rumored possibility of a Canton game played on the 100th anniversary of the league’s launch, September 17, 2020, will not happen.The Hall of Fame, per King, wanted the Bears to “host” a game that night, given their status as one of the two remaining original NFL teams. King notes that the dramatically reduced gate — with space for only 25,000 paying customers — likely was a factor. Throw in the sacrifice of a home game by the Bears along with a short-week trip to Canton for the contest, and it makes sense for the Bears to opt for advancing their 2020 interests in the present over paying excessive homage to 1920.It’s a shame Eddie Goldman Color Rush Jersey , but the NFL didn’t become the billion-dollar behemoth that it is by making bad business decisions.

He bounced from practice squads of the Patriots, back to the Vikings, and finally to the Seahawks in 2017, and he was in the final cut-downs of Seattle before the 2018 season started. The Bears added him to their practice squad on November 5, 2018, and now the 25-year old will have a shot to impress this offseason.According to my math, the Bears currently have 12 players on reserve/futures deals Marcus Cooper Jersey , and those players are;Willie Beavers, OL, Western Michigan - 6’5”, 324Dejon Allen, OL, Hawaii - 6’3”, 290Abdullah Anderson, DL, Bucknell - 6’5”, 295John Franklin III https://www.thebearsfanshop.com/Kyle-Fuller-Jersey , DB, Florida Atlantic - 6’1”, 186Tanner Gentry, WR, Wyoming - 6’1”, 201Cyril Grayson, WR, LSU - 5’9”, 183Michael Joseph, DB Bryce Callahan Color Rush Jersey , Dubuque - 6’1”, 187Jonathon Mincy, DB, Auburn - 5’10”, 196Ryan Nall, RB, Oregon State - 6’2”, 232James Vaughters, LB, Stanford - 6’2” Josh Bellamy Jersey , 250Josh Woods, ILB, Maryland - 6’1”, 204Jameer Thurman, LB, Indiana State - 6’0”, 230Even though Vaughters is listed on their transactions page, his name does not appear on their roster.
