Bears activate OT Jason Spriggs from reserve/COVID-19 list

The Bears’ offensive line was depleted last week by injuries and three positive tests for coronavirus, and it’s starting to come back together. Jason Spriggs, who tested positive Nov. 2, came off the reserve/COVID-19 list Monday.

Spriggs is a backup swing tackle who will start in place of injured right tackle Bobby Massie. That means Rashaad Coward will move back to left guard after starting at right tackle against the Titans.

The Bears are still waiting for center Cody Whitehair and backup Lachavious Simmons to be cleared to return. Whitehair is dealing with a calf injury as well and might have missed the Titans game anyway.
