Bears nose tackle Eddie Goldman’s long-awaited return is delayed again.
Goldman, who hasn’t played since 2019, was scratched Saturday and did not travel for the Bears’ game at the Browns. The team promoted defensive tackle Margus Hunt from the practice squad in his place.
Goldman missed the first two games with a knee injury and was limited in practice Wednesday and Thursday before being out Friday.
It’s a continuation of a challenging situation for the Bears.
After opting out of the 2019 season because of concerns about the coronavirus, Goldman skipped voluntary Organized Team Activities and mandatory minicamp in the offseason.
