Windy City Gridiron
The Chicago Bears and Green Bay Packers meet up on Sunday, and some years when these two teams meet, the records don’t matter, but this is not one of those years. The (9-3) Bears are trying to maintain their division and conference lead over the (8-3-1) Packers, so the stakes are elevated. Each team just dropped its game-day injury report, and we’ll start with the good guys.
The Bears will again be without linebacker Ruben Hyppolite II (shoulder) and cornerback Tyrique Stevenson (hip), but this week they’ll need to navigate missing wide receiver Rome Odunze (foot).
I would guess that we’ll see a heavy dose of 12 personnel for the Bears on Sunday.
Every other Bear who had been limited at times this week practiced in full and are good to go, including starting linebacker T.J. Edwards.
The Packers have yet to reveal their full report, but early indications are that they’ll be without defensive tackle Devonte Wyatt (ankle), defensive end Lukas Van Ness (foot), and wideout Savion Williams (foot), with defensive back Javon Bullard’s availability “up in the air” with an ankle injury.
Once Green Bay announces it, we’ll share it here.
