Bears' Montez Sweat: Sack streak drives value
Rotowire
Sweat recorded two tackles, including 1.0 sacks, in the Bears' 28-21 loss to the Packers on Sunday.
Sweat has between one and three tackles in nine games this season but has produced 8.5 sacks overall, including 7.5 since Week 7. His hot pass-rush stretch keeps him a sack-dependent IDP option, with most of his value tied to sacking the opposing quarterback.

Bears' Kevin Byard: Another steady tackle line
Rotowire
Byard recorded seven total tackles in the Bears' 28-21 loss to the Packers on Sunday.
Byard has between four and seven tackles in all but one contest this season, and he remains one of Chicago's most consistent defensive backs. With six interceptions on the year, he continues to profile as a high-floor IDP safety who adds reliable big-play ability.

Bears' C.J. Gardner-Johnson: Spike week with takeaway
Rotowire
Gardner-Johnson recorded 10 tackles and one interception in the Bears' 28-21 loss to the Packers on Sunday.
Gardner-Johnson has surpassed six tackles only twice this season and had just eight total tackles over his previous three games before this 10-stop outing. His mix of sporadic tackle volume with 3.0 sacks and his first interception makes him a volatile IDP who offers big-play and spike-week upside.

Bears' Kyler Gordon: Unavailable for Week 14
Rotowire
Gordon suffered a groin injury in warmups and has been ruled out for Sunday's contest against the Packers, Adam Jahns of AllCHGO.com reports.
Gordon made his return to action in Week 13 after missing five contests with a groin injury, and he has now potentially aggravated the previous issue. In his absence, Nahshon Wright and Jaylon Jones will stand to operate in more significant roles in Chicago's secondary.

Bears' Ruben Hyppolite: Out for Week 14
Rotowire
Hyppolite (shoulder) has been ruled out ahead of Sunday's matchup against the Packers.
The Maryland product is now in line to miss his second consecutive game due to a shoulder injury. Hyppolite has appeared in seven games this season, recording six total tackles across 113 total snaps (83 on special teams, 30 on defense). Carl Jones could have an expanded role on the Bears' defense while Hyppolite is sidelined Sunday.

Bears' T.J. Edwards: Returning in Week 14
Rotowire
Edwards (hand) has no injury designation ahead of Sunday's matchup against the Packers.

The 29-year-old has appeared in just five games this season, recording 31 total tackles and three passes defensed. Now fully healthy, he's expected to assume Chicago's top middle linebacker duties Sunday.

Bears' Dominique Robinson: Returns to full practice
Rotowire
Robinson (concussion) was estimated to have logged a full practice at Wednesday's walkthrough.
Robinson missed Chicago's Week 13 win over the Eagles due to a concussion. His return to practice is a good sign, though it's unclear if he has cleared the league's concussion protocol yet -- the final step before he's cleared to return for a Week 14 showdown with the Packers.

Bears' Tyrique Stevenson: Still sidelined
Rotowire
Stevenson (hip) was a DNP at Wednesday's walkthrough.
Stevenson suffered a hip injury in Chicago's Week 12 win and hasn't practiced since. He'll likely need to participate in some capacity Thursday to have a chance to play in Week 14 against the Packers.

Bears' Noah Sewell: Lining up for return
Rotowire
Sewell (elbow) was estimated to have practiced in full at Wednesday's walkthrough.
Sewell has missed the Bears' last two games with an elbow injury. His return to full practice suggests he'll be ready to suit up in Week 14 against the Packers, and he should occupy a key role with Tremaine Edmunds (groin) sidelined.

Bears' T.J. Edwards: Returns to practice
Rotowire
Edwards (hand) was estimated to be limited at Wednesday's walkthrough.
Edward has missed the Bears' last four games while recovering from surgery on his hand, and his potential Week 14 return would come just in time for a pivotal divisional showdown with the Packers.

Rotowire
Ogbongbemiga recorded two solo tackles and a pass breakup in Friday's 24-15 win over the Eagles.
The linebacker also played on more than half of the defensive snaps with T.J. Edwards (hand), Tremaine Edmunds (groin), Noah Sewell (elbow) and Ruben Hyppolite (shoulder) all out due to injuries. Ogbongbemiga has made a combined 16 tackles (four solo) over the last two games, as he's taken on an active role at linebacker.

Bears' D'Marco Jackson: Makes five tackles in win
Rotowire
Jackson finished with five tackles (two solo) in Friday's 24-15 win over the Eagles.
The middle linebacker also played on every defensive snap for the second game in a row as Chicago continues to deal with injuries at linebacker to T.J. Edwards (hand), Tremaine Edmunds (groin), Noah Sewell (elbow) and Ruben Hyppolite (shoulder). Jackson should continue to see opportunities until Edwards returns.

Bears' Nahshon Wright: Forces and recovers fumble
Rotowire
Wright finished with five tackles (four solo), a forced fumble and a fumble recovery in Friday's 24-15 win over the Eagles.
The cornerback forced and recovered the same fumble on a tush push attempt in the third quarter. Wright also played on all 51 defensive snaps even with Jaylon Johnson (groin) and Kyler Gordon (calf) back from injuries. He has played on at least 66 percent of the defensive snaps in every game this season, recording 54 tackles (38 solo), 10 pass breakups, including five interceptions, and three fumble recoveries, so he should maintain some sort of role moving forward.

Bears' Kevin Byard: Another fine game in win
Rotowire
Byard recorded six tackles (four solo) during Friday's 24-15 win at Philadelphia.
After Friday's contest, Byard has now collected exactly six tackles in four of his last seven games. He's doing enough to keep up a near every-down role at safety, but his per-snap production has lagged compared to last season, keeping him off the IDP radar in most formats.

Bears' Jaylon Johnson: Active against Philly
Rotowire
Johnson (groin) is active for Friday's game against the Eagles.
Johnson missed Week 1 with the same injury, returned in Week 2 only to aggravate the issue, and then required surgery. This will be just his second game of the season. The Chicago secondary is getting a massive boost with the returns of both Johnson and Kyler Gordon (calf) against Philadelphia.

Bears' Kyler Gordon: Active for Black Friday game
Rotowire
Gordon (calf) is active for Friday's game against the Eagles.
Gordon was activated from injured reserve Thursday and will make his first appearance since Week 7. He missed the first five weeks of the season with a hamstring injury, so Friday will be Gordon's third appearance of the 2025 campaign. He should return to covering the slot for Chicago.

Bears' Kyler Gordon: Activated off IR
Rotowire
The Bears activated Gordon (calf), who remains questionable for Friday's matchup against Philadelphia, off injured reserve Thursday.
All signs point to Gordon returning to action against the Eagles, but that may not be certain until Chicago releases its list of inactives about 90 minutes before Friday's 3:00 p.m. ET kickoff. If Gordon does get cleared to play, he could start at outside cornerback since Tyrique Stevenson has been ruled out for Friday due to a hip injury.
