The Chicago Bears will be down two of their most experienced defensive players for Sunday's game against the Houston Texans if linebacker Roquan Smith (hip) and cornerback Jaylon Johnson (quad) -- who are both listed as questionable -- can't play.
Matt Adams, who is Smith's backup when the Bears are in their nickel defense, has been ruled out for Sunday's game with a hamstring injury sustained during practice. While Smith is listed as questionable, coach Matt Eberflus said the Bears are "hopeful" he will be able to play despite the linebacker missing all three days of practice.
