ANALYSIS
The 24-year-old was let go in order to make room for fellow WR Anthony Miller on the 90-man roster. A 2021 sixth-round pick by the Bears, Newsome hasn't appeared in a regular-season game since his rookie year when he caught two passes for 23 yards. He made one catch for nine yards across 21 preseason snaps this summer.

Past Fantasy Outlooks
2022
2021
After being selected in the sixth round of the 2021 draft, Newsome appeared in just three games, catching two passes for 23 yards. He's expected to compete with a number of veterans to provide the Bears with wide receiver depth.
With the Bears placing slot receiver Anthony Miller on the trade block this offseason, it's no surprise that they selected the 5-10, 190-pound Newsome in the sixth round of the 2021 Draft. During four years at North Carolina, Newsome manned the slot often and arrives in Chicago boasting precise route running. However, playing a position that largely relies on agility in the NFL, he didn't place above the 17th percentile in either of two agility drills at his pro day. Plus, he isn't fast for his size, as his 4.57 40 time checked in at just the 25th percentile. The Bears did end up trading Miller, but only after Newsome suffered a broken collarbone during spring practices, forcing him to the sideline for the start of training camp. He'll have a tough time earning snaps early on.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Gets tryout with Cincinnati
WRFree Agent
October 29, 2022
Cincinnati worked out Newsome on Saturday, Field Yates of ESPN reports.
ANALYSIS
Newsome, along with Dede Westbrook, Victor Bolden and JaVonta Payton, worked out for the Bengals on Saturday. Cincinnati is expected to be without Ja'Marr Chase for an extended period, so it will likely continue bringing in free-agent wideouts to see if the team can find a suitable depth option. Newsome was drafted by the Bears in the sixth round of the 2021 NFL Draft and appeared in three games as a rookie, catching two of five passes for 23 yards, but he was waived by Chicago ahead of the 2022 regular season.
