The Chicago Bears are facing a short week as they prepare to take on the Philadelphia Eagles Friday, and there are still big injury questions.
Chicago was ravaged by injuries to their linebackers for last week’s game against the Pittsburgh Steelers, and the news is still bad at the spot, as they remain perilously thin at the position.
T.J. Edwards, who missed last week’s game with hand and hamstring injuries, is still out of action as he didn’t participate in the workout. Ruben Hyppolite, who left Sunday’s win over the Steelers with a shoulder injury, was also not on the field at Halas Hall on Wednesday.
Noah Sewell also missed a second straight workout with an elbow injury.
The Bears also were without offensive lineman Luke Newman, who is dealing with a foot injury, and cornerback Tyrique Stevenson, who injured his hip in the game against the Steelers.
Defensive lineman Dominique Robinson remains out, as he’s in the NFL’s concussion protocol.
There was a new addition to the injury report on Wednesday, as defensive lineman Gervon Dexter Sr. was limited with a hand injury, according to the Bears.
Cornerback Jaylon Johnson (groin) and safety Kyler Gordon (calf) were both full participants for the second straight day, meaning that they’re still potentially on track to be activated from injured reserve ahead of Friday’s game.
Running backs Kyle Monangai (knee) and Travis Homer (hamstring/knee) were both full participants in the workout, as was left tackle Theo Benedet, who missed last week’s game with a quad injury.
