Bears wrap up practice week for game Sunday vs. Lions; final injury report to come

One of the Bears‘ biggest problems in their 30-12 loss to the Vikings on Monday was their pass protection, and two starting offensive linemen have been out with injuries this week.

The Bears will give a final status on left tackle Braxton Jones (concussion) and left guard Teven Jenkins (calf) after their walk-through Friday. If Jones is out again, the team will have to start backup Larry Borom or rookie Kiran Amegadjie.

The Bears go into the game on an eight-game losing streak, and if they fall again, they’ll stand alone with a nine-game losing streak second in franchise history only to their 14-game losing streak spanning the 2022 and ’23 seasons.

The Lions, meanwhile, are tied with the Eagles and Vikings for first place in the NFC at 12-2. The Lions beat the Bears 23-20 on Thanksgiving in the game that proved to be the last straw for former coach Matt Eberflus.
