The Chicago Bears have now released their first official injury report of Week 9 ahead of their Monday night road game against the Pittsburgh Steelers and the Thursday offering shows that six players failed to practice earlier in the day.
Not practicing for the Bears on Thursday were outside linebacker Khalil Mack (foot), inside linebacker Alec Ogletree (ankle), tight end J.P. Holtz (concussion), safety Eddie Jackson (hamstring), running back Damien Williams (knee), and quarterback Nick Foles (not injury related/personal).
Mack, Jackson and Ogletree all being sidelined on Thursday is big news because all three are starters. Mack, one of the NFL’s premier pass rushers, missed the Bears Week 8 game with his foot injury so that’s notable.
