Who Should I Start? A.T. Perry or Maurice Alexander

Denver Broncos wide receiver A.T. Perry (undisclosed) has made "quite a bit" of progress since being activated from the PUP list, head coach Sean Payton told members of the media, including Luca Evans of the Denver Post. Perry didn't make the Broncos' initial 53-man roster, but he was brought back onto the practice squad. Plus, from the sounds of it, he has earned the praise of Denver's coaching staff ever since getting healthy. It's fair to assume that Perry, who hasn't played in a game since his rookie campaign with the Saints in 2023, could be a candidate to join the 53-man roster if a current Bronco receiver underperforms or gets injured.

The Chicago Bears signed free-agent wide receiver Maurice Alexander to a Reserve/Futures deal on Friday, according to KPRC's Aaron Wilson. New head coach Ben Johnson is poaching Alexander from the Detroit Lions after the 28-year-old spent the last three years in Detroit. The former undrafted free agent out of Florida International has only appeared in four NFL games, though, with all of them coming back in 2022. In his four games for the Lions, he caught his only target for a gain of seven yards. Alexander will head to Chicago with a firm grasp of Johnson's offensive concepts, although he will still be a long shot to make the 53-man active roster to begin the 2025 season out of training camp. He will most likely stick on Chicago's practice squad next season.
