Week 13 Injury Report: 6 Bears miss Tuesday’s practice

WR Taylor Gabriel and TE Ben Braunecker remain sidelined with concussions in the Bears’ Tuesday injury report ahead of Thursday’s game.

The Chicago Bears released their injury report following Tuesday’s practice, and it wasn’t encouraging news for those injured Bears.

Wide receiver Taylor Gabriel (concussion) and tight end Ben Braunecker (concussion) were among six Bears that did not practice Tuesday ahead of Thursday’s Thanksgiving matchup against the Detroit Lions.

Right tackle Bobby Massie, who suffered a high-ankle sprain against the New York Giants, is expected to miss several weeks with the injury. Cornelius Lucas is expected to relieve him in his absence.

Tight end Adam Shaheen missed practice again with a foot injury that’s expected to sideline him for the third straight game, which leaves the Bears thin at tight end. Jesper Horsted and JP Holtz will lead Chicago at tight end for Thursday’s game.

Special teams standout and cornerback Sherrick McManis also missed his second straight practice after suffering a groin injury against the Giants. Linebacker Danny Trevathan remains sidelined with an elbow injury.

Bears Injury Report: Taylor Gabriel and Ben Braunecker sidelined with concussions

There were 2 surprises on the Bears’ injury report ahead of Thursday’s game against the Lions in WR Taylor Gabriel and TE Ben Braunecker.

Following Sunday’s victory over the Giants, the Bears have a quick turnaround ahead of Thursday’s meeting against the Lions.

While Monday wasn’t an official practice day — it was a walkthrough, as the team played yesterday — there were several concerns on Monday’s theoretical practice injury report.

Wide receiver Taylor Gabriel and tight end Ben Braunecker were among six Bears that did not practice on Monday. Gabriel and Braunecker suffered concussions, which makes their status for Thursday iffy at best.

This is Gabriel’s fourth concussion of his career and the second this season. Gabriel was sidelined with a concussion for two games earlier this season after injuring his head against the Redskins in Week 3.

Right tackle Bobby Massie suffered a high-ankle sprain against the Giants, which is expected to sideline him for a few weeks. The status for special teams standout and cornerback Sherrick McManis isn’t much better, as he sustained a groin injury.

Adam Shaheen remains sidelined with a foot injury, which leaves the Bears thin at the tight end position considering Trey Burton’s placement on injured reserve and Braunecker’s concussion. That leaves Jesper Horsted, J.P. Holtz and Bradley Sowell as the Bears’ tight ends.

Linebacker Danny Trevathan remains sidelined with an elbow injury, which many expected to send him to injured reserve and end his season. But he remains on the active roster as the team looks for any positive signs of a potential return this season.

Bears RT Bobby Massie spotted with walking boot on injured ankle

The Bears lost RT Bobby Massie and ST/DB Sherrick McManis to injury in Sunday’s 19-14 victory vs. Giants.

New game, same result for Bears right tackle Bobby Massie, who suffered another injury in Chicago’s 19-14 victory over the New York Giants.

Massie, who suffered a back injury against the Los Angeles Rams last week, was a full participant in practice and started Sunday’s game before exiting with a right ankle injury in the third quarter.

But this injury doesn’t appear to be a quick turnaround for Massie, as he was spotted leaving Soldier Field with a walking boot on his right ankle.

Massie was replaced by Cornelius Lucas. If Massie can’t go for Thursday’s game against the Detroit Lions, Lucas figures to fill in for him, as he did similarly in Week 3 against the Washington Redskins.

Also on the injury front, special teams standout and cornerback Sherrick McManis suffered a groin injury and was ruled out for the rest of the Giants game.

We’ll likely get an update on both Massie and McManis when Matt Nagy meets with the media on Monday in what’s a short turnaround for the Bears as they prepare for a Thanksgiving meeting in Detroit.
