The Chicago Bears (2-5) released their second injury report ahead of Sunday’s Week 8 prime-time game against the Los Angeles Chargers (2-4).
The injury report remains a crowded one with some prominent players listed as not participating or as limited participants. Quarterback Justin Fields, who remains week-to-week with a right thumb injury, didn’t practice once again. He’s doubtful, and rookie Tyson Bagent is expected to make his second NFL start.
Elsewhere, safety Jaquan Brisker did not practice for the second straight day with an illness. It’s a situation that bears monitoring heading into Friday’s practice. Right guard Nate Davis didn’t practice again, as he deals with an ankle injury. The good news? Right tackle Darnell Wright was a limited participant in practice after missing Wednesday’s workout.
More good news: Safety Eddie Jackson (foot) practiced for the second straight day, along with running back Roschon Johnson (concussion) and left tackle Braxton Jones (neck), who was designated to return from injured reserve.
