The Bears have battled injuries this season, including several key starters. But things appear to be turning around ahead of Thursday’s game against the Washington Commanders. Left guard Teven Jenkins has been designated to return from injured reserve, and offensive coordinator Luke Getsy said there’s a legitimate chance he plays. Meanwhile, safety Eddie Jackson said the plan is for him to play this Thursday, after he’s missed the last two games with a foot injury.
Here’s a look at the most recent and relevant Bears stories for the morning of Oct. 4.
