🚨 MIRACLE ESCAPE: Former Buffalo Bills QB Survives ‘Worst Car Crash’ With Wife & Kids — Thanks God for Saving His Family 🙏

The Green Bay Packers made headlines this week when they announced yet another roster shake-up, releasing offensive line depth just hours after their Week 4 injury report was finalized. It marked the third time in a month that Green Bay had shuffled pieces in and out of their trenches, a unit already tested by injuries and inconsistency. Chicago wasted no time pouncing on the opportunity. Less than 24 hours after being released, the Bears swooped in to sign former Nebraska lineman Brant Banks, bolstering their offensive line rotation ahead of a crucial stretch in October. The move underscores just how quickly fortunes can shift in the NFL. While the Packers remained firm in their evaluation of practice squad contributors, Chicago saw a chance to scoop up a young blocker who still carries developmental upside. For the Bears, it’s another example of building depth while taking advantage of divisional rival roster churn. At 24 years old, Banks had shown flashes as a physical presence in camp and on special teams units. Though his playing time never took off this season, scouts have consistently praised his size, toughness, and ability to anchor against bull rushers. That raw skill set was enough for Chicago to gamble on him as a developmental piece who could contribute sooner than expected. In his first public comments since the signing, Banks didn’t hide his frustration with how things ended in Green Bay. “I ran out of patience with the Packers. This was the third time in just one month that they let me go, and at some point, you realize it’s not about talent – it’s about opportunity. I needed a team that believed in me. The Bears gave me that, and now it’s on me to prove I belong.” For Chicago, the addition may not only add depth but also pour fuel on the rivalry with Green Bay. For Banks, it’s a fresh start — and a chance to channel frustration into proving his former team wrong.
