Bears free safety Eddie Jackson a DNP on Wednesday

The San Francisco 49ers and Chicago Bears have both wrapped up their first practices of game week, and the biggest news is that Bears free safety Eddie Jackson did not practice on Wednesday. He suffered a right ankle injury on Sunday against the Green Bay Packers, and while the injury is not believed to be season-ending, his status is uncertain for Week 16.

Jackson has been one of the best coverage safeties in the NFL this season, with Pro Football Focus grading him the best overall safety and the best in coverage.
