Davis is one of three roster bubble names the source feels good about making the team. Heading into camp, the source had him firmly on the outside looking in, but considering his special teams value and playmaking ability in almost every practice session, the source feels like he's done more to earn a final roster spot than anyone else on the depth chart around him. While not a lock, he's considered the favorite heading into the final week of preseason action.

Davis saw more reps with the Bears' first-team offense than Kalif Raymond, who was competing for the WR3 job. The Bears used 12-personnel for exactly half of their passing plays, with an extra tight end looking like the answer at WR3, funneling targets to the top two receivers and Colston Loveland.

Showing versatility in a crowded room; his use in the game appears to have solidified his chances of sticking around. Still repping with the ones, and special teams snaps increased to 11 this week (up from 4 against the Browns), covering units, returning kicks and punts.
