While the Bears have all hands on deck Sunday afternoon in a must-win game vs. the Los Angeles Chargers, the visiting team, at 2-5 in an even more desperate spot, will be without both starting defensive tackles Brandon Mebane and Justin Jones.
The Chargers will have available WR1 Keenan Allen, whose 44 catches and 564 yards rank sixth and seventh, respectively, in the NFL. He was a game-time decision after missing the final two practices of the week following a new hamstring issue.
Also, returning to the fold for the first time in three weeks is starting DE Melvin Ingram, the Chargers' former first-rounder and Pro Bowler who forms one-half of one of the NFL's more dangerous bookend pass-rush pairings along with Joey Bosa.
