The Chicago Bears are managing several injury concerns as they prepare for their Week 2 game. Right tackle Darnell Wright did not participate in Wednesday's practice due to a knee injury, raising questions about his availability. Defensive tackles Grady Jarrett and Neville Gallimore were also held out, with Jarrett resting and Gallimore sidelined by illness.
Rookie cornerback Malik Muhammad II was limited in practice after sustaining an ankle injury during Sunday’s game. Muhammad injured his ankle while intercepting Carolina Panthers quarterback Bryce Young in the second quarter but was able to return to play in the third quarter.
Additional players facing restrictions include running backs D’Onta Foreman and Kyle Monangai, who are limited by ankle and knee injuries, and a hamstring issue, respectively. Defensive lineman Dayo Odeyingbo is nursing a shoulder injury, while safety Xavier Woods and offensive lineman Ozzy Trapilo—both of whom missed the season opener against Carolina—were limited due to groin and knee concerns.
The Bears’ handling of these injuries will be critical as they aim to adjust their lineup and maintain competitiveness in the early stages of the NFL season.
