Bears Promote LB DeDe Lattimore, Waive/Injured OL Taylor Boggs

The Chicago Bears announced Friday night that they have promoted LB DeDe Lattimore to their active roster and waive/injured OL Taylor Boggs to make room for him.

Lattimore, 23, signed on with the Bears as an undrafted free agent out of South Florida back in May. He’s been on and off of the team’s practice squad a few times since the start of the season, but he could be active for the Week 6 match up against the Falcons now that LB Lance Briggs (ribs) and LB Shea McClellin (hand) have been ruled out.

During his one-year at South Florida, Lattimore recorded 98 tackles, 5.5 tackles for a loss, two sacks, one interception and four forced fumbles.
