Top Khalid Kareem News

  • Falcons' Khalid Kareem: Elevated for Week 10

    The Falcons elevated Kareem (undisclosed) from the practice squad to the active roster Saturday, Tori McElhaney of the team's official site reports.

    Kareem, who signed with the Falcons' practice squad in late August, is being elevated for the first time this season. He spent most of the 2023 regular season on the Bears' practice squad but did play in Week 8 against the Chargers, during which he registered one solo tackle and one pass defense while playing 24 snaps on defense. Kareem will give the Falcons additional depth at linebacker for Sunday's game against New Orleans after JD Bertrand was ruled out due to a concussion.

  • Khalid Kareem: Free to sign elsewhere

    Kareem (undisclosed) reached an injury settlement with the Bears on Saturday, Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2 Houston reports.

    The settlement gives Kareem a chance to play in 2024 if he lands with another team. The defensive end appeared in one game and on 24 defensive snaps for Chicago in 2023, recording one tackle and a pass defensed.

  • Khalid Kareem: Let go by Chicago

    The Bears waived Kareem on Tuesday, Kevin Fishbain of The Athletic reports.

    The move corresponds with the Bears acquiring Montez Sweat from the Commanders on Tuesday in exchange for a second-round pick. Kareem had just been activated off the Bears' injured reserve on Oct. 28 and played Sunday night against the Chargers when he was on the field for 24 defensive snaps and registered a solo tackle. Kareem will have the chance to explore his next options should he clear waivers.

  • Bears' Khalid Kareem: Set to play Sunday

    The Bears activated Kareem (hip) from their injured reserve list Saturday, Kevin Fishbain of The Athletic reports.

    Kareem did not suit up for the first two games of the season before picking up a hip injury ahead of the Bears' Week 3 matchup against the Chiefs. He was placed on IR on Sept. 25 and is now set to make his 2023 debut Sunday against the Chargers. His last full season came in his rookie year in 2020 with the Bengals, when he registered 19 tackles including one sack in 16 games.

  • Bears' Khalid Kareem: On track to return Sunday

    Chicago designated Kareem (hip) for return from its injured reserve list Wednesday.

    Kareem was a full participant at practice Wednesday, signaling he's likely to be activated for Week 8. He's still waiting to make his 2023 debut, but he figures to fill a rotational role on the Bears' defensive line once he does.

  • Bears' Khalid Kareem: Heads to IR

    Kareem (hip), who was ruled out for Sunday's game against the Chiefs, was placed on the Bears' injured reserve list Saturday, Chris Emma of 670TheScore.com reports.

    Kareem has been unable to see the field for the first two weeks of the season while dealing with a hip injury. He'll now be forced to sit out for the next four games and will be eligible to return in Week 7 against the Raiders on Oct. 22.

  • Bears' Khalid Kareem: Out against Chiefs

    Kareem (hip) will not play in Sunday's game against the Chiefs, Brad Biggs of the Chicago Tribune reports.

    Kareem did not see the field in either of the Bears' first two games to start the season, thus his absence is not expected to impact the defense. He will now focus on recovering in time for Week 4.

  • Colts' Khalid Kareem: Records sack Thursday

    Kareem (ribs) recorded two solo tackles and one sack in Thursday's 27-13 preseason victory over the Eagles.

    Kareem went down with a rib injury in the Colts' previous preseason game, but his participation in Thursday's exhibition contest indicates he has recovered from the issue. The 25-year-old is in a competition for a depth defensive end role in Indy.

  • Colts' Khalid Kareem: Goes down with injury

    Kareem suffered an injury to his ribs in the Colts' 24-17 preseason victory over the Bears, George Bremer of The Anderson Herald Bulletin reports.

    Kareem was able to return to the game, but his status moving forward is worth monitoring. Based on the fact that he is competing for a final roster spot, he'll likely push to play again Thursday versus the Eagles if possible.

  • Colts' Khalid Kareem: Inks new contract

    The Colts re-signed Kareem on Monday.

    Kareem is now slated to remain with the Colts for at least the 2023 campaign after he signed a new deal with the team. The 24-year-old joined Indianapolis from the Bengals back in November and served as both a rotational defensive lineman as well as a special-teams contributor across the final four weeks of this past season.

  • Khalid Kareem: Waived by Bengals

    Kareem was waived by the Bengals on Tuesday, one day after he was activated from the IR, Paul Dehner Jr. of The Athletic reports.

    This comes as a bit of a surprise, as Kareem was expected to be part of the Bengals' defensive line rotation. He was drafted in the fifth round of the 2020 Draft, but he has dealt with a number of injury issues this season.

  • Bengals' Khalid Kareem: Ditches IR

    Cincinnati added Kareem (hamstring) from its injured reserve list to its active roster Monday, Ben Baby of ESPN.com reports.

    Kareem had to miss the first five games of the season as he tended to a hamstring injury, but it now appears he could return as soon as Week 6 at New Orleans. As long as Sam Hubbard and Trey Hendrickson remain healthy though, Kareem will be relegated to a rotational role.
