Bears-Saints inactives: DT Grady Jarrett out vs. Saints

Defensive tackle Grady Jarrett won’t play for the Bears again this week.

He’s one of the Bears’ inactives for the Saints game, joining kicker Cairo Santos, receiver Jahdae Walker, linebacker Ruben Hyppolite, guard Luke Newman, linebacker Noah Sewell and emergency quarterback Case Keenum.

Sewell has a concussion, and the Bears ruled out Santos, who has a right quad injury, Friday.

The rest are healthy scratches.

Jarrett hasn’t played since Week 3 as he rehabs a knee injury. The Bears signed him to a three-year, $42.75 million contract in March after he spent the first 10 years of his career with the Falcons. He practiced Friday for the first time in a month.

“Missing games have always been real tough for me — I haven’t missed many in my career …” he said Friday. “I’m excited to be where I’m at and excited to get back and roll, whenever that time may be and contribute to the team.”

 

While all wins are worth celebrating, this didn’t change the overall assessment. Quarterback Caleb Williams called it “insane” for the Bears to be 4-2 given how much growth has yet to happen, and Johnson continued his approach of cherishing the victory, but still being “a truth teller.”
Running back D’Andre Swift led the way offensively with another big rushing game.
They rushed for 222 yards on offense and created four turnovers on defense in a 26-14 win at Soldier Field.
