Watch: Tajae Sharpe is fighting for a roster spot and makes a fantastic catch

Tajae Sharpe is a seven year veteran in the NFL and has stepped up with injuries at the wide receiver position.  He made a big catch that could be key to making the Bears roster.

Sharpe has been in a dog fight in the wide receiver competition and has been talked about this week in practice as a player to watch.  He didn’t disappoint with this catch.  Sharpe is a seven-year veteran that has bounced around the league and thus far has taken advantage of his chance in Chicago.

With plays like this he could wind up making the 53-man roster.  We’ll see how his day develops as well as the rest of his preseason games.  But for now these are the key plays needed to make the roster.
