Bears | Open competition for returns jobs

Chicago Bears WR Eric Weems, WR Micheal Spurlock, WR Armanti Edwards, WR Chris X. Williams and RB Michael Ford are all in the mix for the kick and punt return jobs this season.

Footballguys View: The days of Devin Hester are long gone, and the Bears need to find a dangerous return man to aid their special teams. It will be interesting to see which one of these players stands out the most in training camp.

Bills | Kiko Alonso tears ACL

Updating a previous story, Buffalo Bills LB Kiko Alonso (knee) tore his ACL and is expected to miss the season, a source told ESPN’s Adam Schefter.

Footballguys View: A crushing blow to the Bills defense here. Alonso is an up-and-coming player in the league and a fine linebacker who is constantly around the football. His timetable to return is 6-9 months, so expect the Bills to put him on season-ending Injured Reserve in the near future. We could see rookie Preston Brown get more of an opportunity at weak-side linebacker due to this injury.
