The Green Bay Packers are returning starting defensive backs Jaire Alexander and Evan Williams from injury on Sunday against the Chicago Bears. Both are active after being listed as questionable to play in Week 11.
Alexander (knee) and Williams (hamstring) were injured during the Packers’ win over the Jacksonville Jaguars in Week 8 and missed the Packers’ loss to the Detroit Lions in Week 9 before the bye. With a week off and then a full week of limited practices this week, Alexander and Williams will return to face first overall pick Caleb Williams and the Bears struggling passing game on Sunday at Soldier Field.
Center Josh Myers is also back after missing Week 9 with a wrist injury.
Defensive lineman Colby Wooden is the only injured inactive player for the Packers — he’s out with a knee injury. Cornerback Robert Rochell, safety Kitan Oladapo and offensive lineman Travis Glover are healthy scratches.
The Bears will be without starting left guard Teven Jenkins, who was ruled out with an ankle injury suffered last week. Top edge rusher Montez Sweat is active and will play through an ankle injury.
