While things have been good for the Chicago Bears in the first quarter, it wasn’t all pretty. In fact, Chicago lost an important starter on the defensive line early on.
Defensive tackle Akiem Hicks exited the game following his first play of the game. He spent time in the medical tent before heading to the locker room.
Hicks suffered a groin injury and is questionable to return, according to the Bears.
