Finds end zone
Newsome caught a 13-yard touchdown pass and had one carry for 13 yards in the Bears' 19-14 win over the Chiefs on Saturday.
Analysis: Newsome scored in the second half when the Bears were playing their reserves. He'll be continuing to battle for a depth role in Chicago's wide receiver group over the next two preseason games.

Battling for roster spot
Newsome could contribute as a return specialist and receiver if he can earn a roster spot, Alyssa Barbieri of USA Today reports.
Analysis: The Bears appear to have four roster locks at wide receiver: Darnell Mooney, Byron Pringle, Velus Jones and Equanimeous St. Brown. Newsome, who was the Bears' sixth-round draft choice last year, appeared in just three games, seeing 98 offensive and 19 special-teams snaps. He'll be competing with N'Keal Harry (ankle), Tajae Sharpe and Dante Pettis for two roster spots. If he makes the team, he'll likely need other receivers to miss time to have weekly fantasy value.

Competition added to roster
Newsome now faces a tougher battle for snaps after the Bears drafted Velus Jones, Adam Jahns of The Athletic reports.
Analysis: After being selected in the sixth round of the 2021 Draft, Newsome played in just three games, catching two passes for 23 yards. With the team looking to add speed to the receiver group, it added Byron Pringle and Equanimeous St. Brown in free agency along with Jones in the draft. Newsome will likely need to have an impressive training camp in order to earn significant snaps in the regular season.

Called up to the active roster
Newsome was elevated to the Bears' active roster from the practice squad Saturday, Larry Mayer of the Bears' official site reports.
Analysis: Newsome will make his third appearance with the active roster Sunday against the Vikings. The 2021 sixth-round selection has seen a total of 77 snaps on offense so far, making one catch on three targets for 10 yards. He has also chipped in on punt return duty.

Back to Bears' practice squad
Newsome reverted to the Bears' practice squad Monday, per the NFL's transaction log.
Analysis: Newsome was active for the second consecutive game in Sunday's win over the Seahawks. He played a role in all aspects of the game, demanding two targets while recording one catch for 10 yards. Newsome was also busy on special teams, logging two punt returns for 28 yards in the absence of Jakeem Grant (concussion) while also recording a tackle on kick coverage.

Posts first career reception
Newsome caught a 10-yard pass in the Bears' 25-24 win over the Seahawks on Sunday.
Analysis: After playing 66 percent of the snaps in Week 15 against the Vikings, Newsome was active but saw less playing time with Marquise Goodwin (foot) returning to the lineup. Although he could be active against the Giants in Week 17, he won't be a recommended fantasy option.

Moves up to Chicago's roster
Newsome was elevated to the Bears' active roster Saturday.
Analysis: Newsome played a whopping 48 offensive snaps in the loss Monday to the Vikings, but he hardly saw any targets. With Jakeem Grant (concussion) sidelined and Allen Robinson still potentially not activated off the reserve/COVID-19 list, the rookie sixth-round pick could see another influx of snaps.

Reverts to practice squad
Newsome reverted to the Bears' practice squad Tuesday, per the NFL's official transaction log.
Analysis: Newsome ranked third among the Bears' wide receivers by playing 48 offensive snaps in Monday's loss to the Vikings, but he was targeted just once. He'll now head back to the practice squad but is a candidate to rejoin the active roster at some point, particularly if Marquise Goodwin (foot) and Jakeem Grant (concussion) are unavailable.

Posts no stats in loss
Newsome failed to catch his lone target in the Bears' 17-9 loss to the Vikings on Monday.
Analysis: Newsome's biggest impact on the game was when he committed a false-start penalty that potentially killed a drive for the Bears. It's unlikely he has a significant role in the team's offense during the fantasy playoffs.

Elevated by Bears
Newsome was elevated from the Bears' practice squad ahead of Monday's game against the Vikings, Larry Mayer of the Bears' official site reports.
Analysis: Newsome will provide depth at wide receiver Monday since Allen Robinson (undisclosed) remains on the reserve/COVID-19 list while Marquise Goodwin (foot) is doubtful. The 2021 sixth-rounder hasn't yet made his regular-season debut in the NFL.

Misses 53-man roster
Newsome was waived by the Bears on Tuesday, Tom Pelissero of NFL Network reports.
Analysis: The rookie sixth-round pick apparently didn't show enough over the past few months to warrant a spot on Chicago's initial 53-man roster. The Bears hope to bring back Newsome via the practice squad, but he'll first need to pass through waivers unclaimed.

Catches first NFL pass
Newsome caught one pass for seven yards in the Bears' 41-15 preseason loss to the Bills on Saturday.
Analysis: After being selected in the first round of this year's draft, Newsome made his Chicago debut and caught his only target while playing with the backups. He's competing for a roster spot, and there's a good chance he sees significant action in next week's final preseason game to determine his status going into the season.

Looking sharp in practice
Newsome (collarbone) took a short catch for a long gain during Thursday's practice, Dan Wiederer of the Chicago Tribune reports.
Analysis: The rookie sixth-round pick opened training camp on the PUP list and has been eased into practice, but it looks like he's on track to play this preseason, even if it doesn't happen in Saturday's opener against Miami. Newsome is hoping to win a back-end roster spot and isn't likely to have a significant role on offense early in the year

Coming off PUP
Newsome (collarbone) will be removed from the PUP list for a limited practice Monday, Adam Hoge of NBC Sports Chicago reports.
Analysis: The rookie sixth-round pick will get back on the field exactly two months after his initial injury, falling right in line with the recovery timeline. Newsome should have plenty of time to prepare for Week 1, but that doesn't mean he'll earn a significant role, or even a roster spot. He'll still have his work cut out for him.

Lands on PUP list
Newsome (collarbone) was placed on the preseason PUP list Sunday, Kevin Fishbain of The Athletic reports.
Analysis: The rookie sixth-round pick was ruled out for two months after suffering a broken collarbone in early June, so it's not much of a surprise he'll open camp on the PUP list. Assuming he avoids any setbacks, Newsome should be healthy sometime in early-to-mid August as he attempts to secure a spot on the season-opening roster.

Out for two months
Newsome suffered a fractured collarbone during Tuesday's practice, Tom Pelissero of NFL Network reports.
Analysis: Newsome reportedly had a "clean" break, which means the rookie sixth-round pick is facing an eight-week estimated recovery timeline. He suffered the injury 10 and a half weeks before the Bears' first preseason game, so it's possible the setback doesn't have much impact on his bid to earn a roster spot and a role within the Chicago offense. He caught 188 passes for 2,435 yards and 18 touchdowns over his four seasons at North Carolina, peaking in 2019 with a 72-1,018-10 receiving line in 12 games.
