Chicago Bears WR Eddie Royal was released Thursday, May 11. Additionally, C Cornelius Edison, FB Paul Lasike and DL Will Sutton were waived.
| Footballguys view: Royal has rarely had a consistent impact in recent years and is more often fantasy fool's gold for players in Daily and Season-Long formats. |

Bears | Bears likely to dispose of Eddie Royal Tue Mar 7, 02:21 AM
Chicago Bears WR Eddie Royal is likely to have his contract terminated, but the team cannot do so until he passes a physical.
| Footballguys view: The Bears are re-shaping their WR corps this offseason. Royal has a base salary of $5 million in 2017 and does not figure to be part of Chicago's plans for the upcoming campaign. |

Bears | Eddie Royal expected to play Sunday Sun Nov 20, 10:29 AM
Chicago Bears WR Eddie Royal (toe) is expected to play in Week 11's game against the New York Giants.
| Footballguys view: Royal could become the de facto #1 target today with Alshon Jeffery suspended and high winds predicted in East Rutherford for the game against the Giants. He has some PPR appeal, but there's risk too. |

Bears | Eddie Royal listed as questionable Fri Nov 18, 03:49 PM
Chicago Bears WR Eddie Royal (toe) is listed as questionable for the team's Week 11 game Sunday, Nov. 20, against the New York Giants. He was able to get in a limited practice Friday, Nov. 18.
| Footballguys view: Royal should play this week and he's a leading candidate to soak up the targets vacated by Alshon Jeffery when he got suspended. Royal has a long history with Jay Cutler and their rapport could push him to the top of the target pecking order. |
Bears | Eddie Royal listed as limited Thu Nov 17, 03:34 PM
Chicago Bears WR Eddie Royal (toe) was limited during practice Thursday, Nov. 17.

Bears | Eddie Royal limited Wed Nov 16, 05:01 PM
Chicago Bears WR Eddie Royal (toe) was limited in practice Wednesday, Nov. 16.
| Footballguys view: With Alshon Jeffery (suspension) out for a month the Bears could use Royal more. This week against the Giants, Royal could put up WR4/deep flex play numbers. We know QB Jay Cutler could latch onto one guy, and he's had a long history with Royal. That makes Royal a cheap GPP play with upside for DFS players. |

Chicago Bears WR Eddie Royal (toe) has been limited in practice all week but is expected to end a two-game absence in Week 10 against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.
| Footballguys view: Royal probably isn't worth owning in typical leagues with the emergence of Cameron Meredith, but he helps the outlook of Jay Cutler as a streamer in a good matchup this week. |

Chicago Bears WR Eddie Royal (toe) did not practice this week and is listed as doubtful for Week 8 against the Minnesota Vikings.
| Footballguys view: It will be interesting to see how the targets are distributed by QB Jay Cutler in this tough matchup against the Vikings. We know WR Alshon Jeffery should get plenty of looks, but what about guys like WR Cameron Meredith and TE Zach Miller? We've got Meredith as a WR3 with upside and Miller as a high-end TE2 in Week 8. |

Chicago Bears WR Eddie Royal (calf) is officially active for the team's Week 5 game.

Bears | Eddie Royal looking like a GTD Fri Oct 7, 03:04 PM
Chicago Bears WR Eddie Royal (calf) is looking like he'll be a game-time decision for the team's Week 5 game Sunday, Oct. 9, according to head coach John Fox. He hasn't practiced all week and is being listed as questionable for the contest.
| Footballguys view: Royal was set up for a big game with Kevin White out and Alshon Jeffery hurting, but he seems to be in worse shape than Jeffery and shouldn't be trusted even if he goes on Sunday. This also hurts Brian Hoyer's outlook. |
