Chiefs sign WR Ihmir Smith-Marsette to PS

<blockquote class="twitter-tweet"><p lang="en" dir="ltr">Chiefs have signed former Bears and Vikings WR Ihmir Smith-Marsette to their practice squad. He was on the field for practice Friday.</p>— Matt Derrick (@mattderrick) <a href="https://twitter.com/mattderrick/status/1583523018298753024?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">October 21, 2022</a></blockquote> <script async src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script>

Coach Matt Eberflus said Friday that the Bears would examine changes to their starting lineup, roster and strategy during a long weekend without a game. Receiver Ihmir Smith-Marsette was the first — and maybe last — roster casualty.

Smith-Marsette, whose two penalties against the Vikings helped to scuttle the Bears’ comeback, was cut Tuesday. The Bears promoted receiver Isaiah Coulter from the practice squad to take his place and filled their practice-squad opening with tight end Sammis Reyes.

The Bears claimed Smith-Marsette at the start of the regular season after he was cut by the Vikings, who drafted him in the fifth round in 2021. Playing against his former team in Week 5, Smith-Marsette caught a pass from Justin Fields at the Vikings’ 39-yard line with the Bears trailing by a touchdown. Rather than step out of bounds, he fought for more yards and was stripped by cornerback Cameron Dantzler to seal the loss with about a minute left.

‘‘I tried to do too much on my end,’’ Smith-Marsette said at the time. ‘‘I’ve just got to be smarter.’’

Earlier in the fourth quarter, he was called for an illegal-block-in-the-back penalty on what would have been a 52-yard touchdown run by Fields. It would have given the Bears the lead.

In four games with the Bears, Smith-Marsette logged one catch for 15 yards — the play on which he fumbled.

Reyes played in 11 games for the Commanders last season, primarily on special teams. He was the first Chile-born player to appear in an NFL game. A basketball player by trade, he didn’t play football growing up or in college.

Okay now we are guaranteed Super Bowl champs!!!

Just by reading that, I can tell the dude is a game changer

We need to sign and/or trade for every RB & WR with a hyphenated last name that we can get our hands on. It is the key to our championship run.

Unfortunately, my name contains and underscore and not a hyphen, but I will ask the mods to update it if it means we can make this happen.

Just reading snippets seems like a development play for the future.

Jesus Christ, another hyphenated name.

BO-LD move by the Chiefs!

The kids sewing jersey name plates together in Indonesia must hate the chiefs.
