Rookie tight end released to make room for Hester

To clear room for Devin Hester on the 80-man roster (he was on the reserve-did not report list), tight end Marcus Stone was placed on waivers, his agent John Owens said. The undrafted rookie from North Carolina State has 24 hours to clear. That leaves the Bears with four tight ends on the roster–veterans Desmond Clark and Greg Olsen, second-year player Fontel Mines and rookie fifth-round pick Kellen Davis.
