Inks future deal with Chicago Brown signed a reserve/future contract with the Bears on Tuesday.

Impact The fourth-year running back spent most of the season on the Bears' practice squad. Brown appeared in three regular-season games and logged five carries for 37 yards and one touchdown while returning one kickoff for 23 yards, all of which came in Week 9 against the Bengals, when he served as Kyle Monangai's backup due to the absences of D'Andre Swift and Roschon Johnson. By signing a future contract, Brown will be a member of the Bears' 90-man roster when the offseason starts Feb. 9, which gives him the opportunity to participate in OTAs, minicamp and any other offseason program.

Elevated for Sunday's game Chicago elevated Brown from the practice squad to the active roster Saturday.

Impact Brown has bounced back and forth between the Bears' active roster and practice squad this season, appearing in two games Week 9 and Week 12. This is the 28-year-old's second practice-squad elevation this season, as the Bears need extra depth behind D'Andre Swift and Kyle Monangai after Travis Homer (ankle) was ruled out for Sunday's game. Brown will likely contribute primarily on special teams versus Cleveland.

Signs with Chicago Brown signed with the Bears' practice squad Monday.

Waived by Chicago Brown was waived by the Bears on Thursday.

Impact The running back was let go to help make room for defensive backs Jaylon Johnson and Kyler Gordon.

In two games this season, Brown has carried the ball five times for 37 yards and a touchdown.

Signs to Chicago's active roster The Bears signed Brown from their practice squad to their 53-man roster Saturday.

Impact Brown has played one game this season, tallying five carries for 37 yards and a touchdown Week 9 versus Cincinnati as a practice-squad elevation. He's now getting a chance on the active roster as a replacement for Roschon Johnson (thumb), who was placed on injured reserve Saturday. Johnson had been seeing almost all of his work on special teams before the injury, and that may be Brown's role as well since both D'Andre Swift and Kyle Monangai are healthy and have been logging nearly all of the team's backfield touches.

Reverts to practice squad The Bears reverted Brown to their practice squad Monday, per the NFL's transaction log.

Impact Brown got his first elevation of the season for this past Sunday's win over Cincinnati and finished with five carries for 37 yards and his first career NFL touchdown. His opportunity came as a result of both D'Andre Swift (groin) and Roschon Johnson (back) being unable to suit up for the contest. If both of those players are inactive in Week 10 against the Giants, Brown will likely be elevated again.

Headed to Windy City The Bears signed Brown to a contract Monday.

Impact The move corresponds with Chicago waiving Ameer Speed (undisclosed) with an injury designation. Brown spent most of the 2024 season on the Seahawks' practice squad and hasn't seen regular-season action since 2022 with the Raiders, when he played 61 snaps on special teams across six games. He'll have an opportunity to see snaps out of the backfield during practices and preseason games due to injuries to Roschon Johnson (foot), Travis Homer (calf) and Deion Hankins (concussion).
