The Chicago Bears’ injury list is a packed one heading into Sunday’s game against the Detroit Lions, and they’ll be without depth at the outside linebacker position.
James Vaughters, who has served as depth behind Khalil Mack and Robert Quinn, was listed as questionable with a knee injury. On Saturday, he was downgraded to out.

This means fifth-round rookie Trevis Gipson should be active and see some playing time in Vaughters’ place.
The Bears have eight other players, including six starters, that are questionable for Sunday. That includes defensive tackle Akiem Hicks, outside linebacker Khalil Mack and receivers Allen Robinson and Darnell Mooney.
