MINNEAPOLIS — After being a healthy scratch the last two weeks, Velus Jones is back on the Bears’ active roster for Monday night’s game against the Vikings.
Jones had been producing little on offense and having few opportunities to do anything more than take a touchback on kick returns. The Bears consider him their best kick returner, a role he could resume at kickoff.
Earlier Monday, the Bears activated linebacker DeMarquis Gates and cornerback Christian Matthew from the practice squad.
