Who's on Bears Practice Squad After Demetric Felton's Release

The Bears on Tuesday released running back Demetric Felton from the practice squad.

It could be a sign they're planning on the return of Roschon Johnson to the lineup. Johnson has been in the NFL concussion protocol after suffering a head injury against the Detroit Lions on Thanksgiving. He missed Sunday's loss at San Francisco.

Without Johnson, and with D'Andre Swift suffering from a quad injury, the Bears relied on Travis Homer as backup running back and had recently re-acquired Darrynton Evans called up from the practice squad to the regular roster for a week.

Felton, who is also a return man, was signed to the practice squad by the Bears Dec. 3. The former UCLA back was with the Bears in training camp but was released after two weeks.
