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.

Bears' Amen Ogbongbemiga: Breaks up pass Friday
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' Jaquan Brisker: Finishes with six tackles in win
Rotowire
Brisker recorded six tackles (five solo) and a pass breakup in Friday's 24-15 win over the Eagles.
The safety also played on every defensive snap for the 11th time in 12 games this season. Brisker has 62 tackles (38 solo), including 1.0 sacks, and five pass breakups, including an interception, in 2025.

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' Jaylon Johnson: Comes off IR
Rotowire
Chicago activated Johnson (groin) off injured reserve Thursday, and he remains questionable for Friday's Week 13 game against the Eagles.
This seems to confirm reports that Johnson will return to action Friday, though he remains officially questionable. His final status may not be clarified until the Packers release their list of inactives about 90 minutes prior to Friday's 3:00 p.m. ET kickoff. If Johnson does indeed get clearance to play, he'll likely reclaim a starting role at cornerback.

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.

Bears' Jaylon Johnson: Officially tagged as questionable
Rotowire
Johnson (groin) has been listed as questionable to play against the Eagles on Friday.
Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reported earlier Thursday that Johnson was set to be activated, but for now, he's questionable. Johnson remains on injured reserve and would need to be activated by Thursday afternoon to have a chance to suit up. The cornerback missed all of training camp and the preseason with the groin injury, sat out Week 1, aggravated the injury in Week 2, had surgery in late September, and has been out ever since.

Bears' Kyler Gordon: Officially questionable for Friday
Rotowire
Gordon (calf) has been deemed questionable to play against Philadelphia on Black Friday.
Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reported earlier Thursday that Gordon is expected to be activated for Friday's battle, and that could certainly be the case, but for now he is officially questionable. He's still on IR and will need to be activated by Thursday afternoon in order to suit up against the Eagles. Gordon has played in only two games this season, as he also missed the first four contests of the campaign due to a hamstring issue.

Bears' Dominique Robinson: Not playing Friday
Rotowire
Robinson (concussion) has been ruled out for Friday's game against the Eagles.
The defensive end has been listed as a non-participant throughout the practice week, so his status is not a surprise. Robinson has played about as often on special teams as defense this year.

Bears' Tyrique Stevenson: Sitting out Friday's contest
Rotowire
Stevenson (hip) has been ruled out for Friday's Week 13 clash against the Eagles.
Stevenson had to make an early exit from Sunday's win over Pittsburgh after hurting his hip. He was listed as a DNP in all three of Chicago's practices this week (two were walkthroughs), and he'll be held out from Friday's matchup. Kyler Gordon (calf), Jaylon Jones or Nick McCloud could step into a starting role in Stevenson's stead.

Bears' Gervon Dexter: Should be good to go
Rotowire
Dexter (hand) was a full participant in practice Thursday ahead of Friday's matchup with the Eagles.
The defensive tackle upgraded from limited participation Wednesday to full participation Thursday. Dexter has played on at least 51 percent of the defensive snaps in all 11 of Chicago's games this year, recording 26 tackles (12 solo), including 4.0 sacks, and two fumble recoveries in total.

Bears' Noah Sewell: Remaining out Week 13
Rotowire
Sewell (elbow) has been ruled out for Friday's tilt against the Eagles.
Sewell will miss a second straight game due to an elbow injury. He was listed as a non-participant in all three practice sessions (though two were walkthroughs) this week, so his status for the Sunday, Dec. 7 clash against Green Bay is also hazy. The Bears are very depleted at the linebacker position this week, as Tremaine Edmunds (groin) landed on IR on Saturday and Ruben Hyppolite (shoulder) and T.J. Edwards (hand) have both also been ruled out for the matchup versus Philadelphia.

Bears' T.J. Edwards: Remaining out Week 13
Rotowire
Edwards (hand) has been ruled out for Friday's matchup against Philadelphia.
Edwards suffered a hand injury in Week 9 against Cincinnati and hasn't been able to play since. He was deemed a DNP in all three practices this week (though two were walkthroughs), so it's not clear if he's anywhere close to returning. Fellow linebackers Ruben Hyppolite (shoulder) and Noah Sewell (elbow) have also been ruled out for Friday, and Tremaine Edmunds (groin) landed on IR on Saturday, so the Bears will be extremely thin at the position.
