The Chicago Bears have elevated running back Armando Allen to the active roster from the practice squad and placed running back Lorenzo Booker on injured reserve.
They also waived linebacker Patrick Trahan on Saturday.
Allen appeared in two games for the Bears last season, carrying 15 times for 48 yards. Booker sat out practice this week after sustaining a head injury in the final preseason game at Cleveland.
Trahan appeared in five games for Chicago last season.
Heading into his third season, Chicago Bears nose tackle Stephen Paea is ready to compete for the starting spot. But handling his family's off-season acquisition – triplets! – may be a bigger challenge.
