Webster spent the past two seasons on and off of the Rams’ roster. He was waived during training camp and claimed by the 49ers before being waived again and claimed by the Bears. He was, once again, waived this past week. 

In 2021, Webster has appeared in four games for the Bears and recorded 13 punt return yards. He has not been targeted on offense.
