Saints-Bears inactives: DT Grady Jarrett out

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.”

 

Kicking a sad-sack opponent to the curb is no great achievement, but it was how the Bears did it — winning a fourth game in a row for the first time since 2018 — that counts.
It was only the third time in Swift’s career that he’d run for more than 100 yards in consecutive games.
While all wins are worth celebrating, this didn’t change the overall assessment. Quarterback Caleb Williams said it’s “insane” that the Bears are 4-2 given how much growth has yet to happen, and Ben Johnson maintained his approach of cherishing the victory but being “a truth-teller.”
