Bears Week 1 inactives: Velus Jones Jr. OUT vs. 49ers

The Bears have released their inactives ahead of Sunday’s season opener against the 49ers.

The Chicago Bears have released their inactives ahead of their Week 1 game against the San Francisco 49ers, where the Bears are looking to start the Matt Eberflus era with a win.

Rookie wide receiver Velus Jones Jr. has been nursing a hamstring injury that held him out of practice all week. Jones was listed as doubtful for the opener, so it’s not a surprise to find him among the inactives.

Here’s a look at the Bears inactive against the 49ers:

  • WR Velus Jones Jr.
  • DB Elijah Hicks
  • DL Kingsley Jonathan
  • OL Ja’Tyre Carter
  • OL Alex Leatherwood
  • TE Trevon Wesco

The Bears and 49ers kick things off at Noon CT on FOX.
