Bears Week 13 Inactives: Taylor Gabriel, Ben Braunecker among inactives vs. Lions

The Bears released their inactives against the Lions, which includes the absences of Taylor Gabriel, Ben Braunecker and Sherrick McManis.

The Chicago Bears released their inactives ahead of today’s game against the Detroit Lions, and there are no real surprises considering Wednesday’s practice report.

Wide receiver Taylor Gabriel, tight end Ben Braunecker, right tackle Bobby Massie, cornerback Sherrick McManis, tight end Adam Shaheen, linebacker Danny Trevathan and defensive lineman Abdullah Anderson are all inactive for this Thanksgiving Day game.

With Gabriel’s absence, wide receiver Riley Ridley is active for the second time in his career and figures to get some action today.

The Bears are thin at tight end with Braunecker and Shaheen being inactive, which leaves them with Jesper Horsted and JP Holtz at tight end.

On the offensive line, Cornelius Lucas will start for the injured Massie, who is expected to be out for a few weeks with a high-ankle sprain. Rookie offensive lineman Alex Bars is also active for the Bears.

Here are the Lions’ inactives, who will be without Matthew Stafford, Jamal Agnew and Damon Harrison.
