Windy City Gridiron
As the Chicago Bears prepare to take on the Los Angeles Rams in the Divisional round of the NFL Playoffs this Sunday, the first official injury report of the week has been released.
The Bears had a walk-thru practice on Wednesday, so participation is an estimation. The team listed just one player as DNP (did not practice): DB Nick McCloud (groin).
Three Bears were listed as “limited” in practice: WR DJ Moore (knee), WR Rome Odunze (foot), and LB Jalen Reeves-Maybin (back).
DB C.J. Gardner-Johnson, who sustained a concussion in the final game of the regular season against the Detroit Lions (and subsequently missed the Wild Card round vs. the Packers), was listed as a full participant on Wednesday. Also listed as full participants were: OL Braxton Jones (knee), LB Amen Ogbongbemiga (concussion), and DL Joe Tryon-Shoyinka (concussion).
The Los Angeles Rams listed CB Darius Williams (personal) as DNP on Wednesday. The team listed two players as “limited,” OL Kevin Dotson (ankle) and NT Poona Ford (elbow).
QB Matthew Stafford (right finger), WR Xavier Smith (wrist), CB Josh Wallace (ankle), TE Terrance Ferguson (hamstring), and S Quentin Lake (foot) were all full participants.
The Bears take on the Rams this Sunday evening at Soldier Field in Chicago. The game takes place at 5:30 p.m. (Chicago time), and it will be broadcast on NBC.
