Bears rule out starting LG but will return pair of starting OTs vs. Packers

The Chicago Bears ruled out starting left guard Teven Jenkins but did not give a playing status designation for starting left tackle Braxton Jones and starting right tackle Darnell Wright — meaning they will play — ahead of Sunday’s showdown with the Green Bay Packers, per Kevin Fishbain of The Athletic.

Jenkins left last Sunday’s loss to the New England Patriots with an ankle injury and did not practice this week. Jones and Wright both missed last week with knee injuries — and rookie quarterback Caleb Williams took nine sacks in the 19-3 defeat.

With Jenkins out and Jones and Wright returning, the Bears will likely start Jones at left tackle, Doug Kramer at left guard, Coleman Shelton at center, Matt Pryor at right guard and Wright at right tackle against the Packers.
