Injuries continue to plague the Bears this season with key offensive line and defensive backs out as well.
Rookie free agent Tyson Bagent is finally going to get to start what he finishes for the first time in his NFL career.
Left guard Teven Jenkins said he couldn't talk about possibly moving to the right side, but talked about cleaning up what OC Luke Getsy called "communication issues" on the line.
Head coach Matt Eberflus continued to say quarterback Justin Fields is doubtful and wouldn't rule out surgery on his dislocated thumb.
"He is a freakish athlete that nobody knows about," said Bagent's college head coach, Ernie McCook.
Linebacker Tremaine Edmunds packed boxes full of food on Tuesday.
Police said, around 1:30 p.m., a 50-year-old man and a 27-year-old man got into an argument with three other men inside the stadium, when the three men began beating them.
The Bears will play the waiting game after Fields dislocated his thumb. His availability for this Sunday's game against the Raiders will come down to his grip strength.
Head coach Matt Eberflus did not reveal a specific timetable for when Fields may be ready to get back onto the field and noted that "it's really going to come down to grip strength."
Fields got hurt when he was sacked by Danielle Hunter with about 10 minutes left in the third quarter.
