None: The Bears will be 100 percent healthy heading into this Week 1 game, as no players on the active roster have been ruled out.
Questionable
LB Dylan Cole: Cole has been battling a hamstring injury that held him out of practice on Wednesday and Thursday. But he was a limited participant on Friday, and he has a chance to play Sunday as he’s been ruled questionable.
Removed from injury report
S Jaquan Brisker: Brisker has been dealing with a groin injury that’s sidelined him for the last three weeks. After being limited on Wednesday, he was a full participant on Thursday and Friday and has no game designation for Sunday.
S Eddie Jackson: Jackson suffered an ankle injury on the first day of joint practices with the Colts, and he didn’t practice for the remainder of the summer. Jackson was limited on Wednesday but he was a full participant Thursday and Friday is a go for the season opener.
TE Marcedes Lewis: Lewis had a veteran rest day on Thursday. He was a full participant in practice on Wednesday and Friday. No injury concerns here.
DL DeMarcus Walker: Walker is dealing with a calf injury that’s kept him sidelined, but he was a limited participant in practice Wednesday. Since, he practiced in full Thursday and Friday and is good to go for Sunday’s opener.

LG Teven Jenkins: Jenkins was placed on injured reserve with an unspecified leg injury. Jenkins will miss the first four games and is eligible to return in Week 5 at the Commanders on Oct. 5.
C Doug Kramer: Kramer, like Jenkins, landed on IR with an undisclosed injury. He will miss the first four games and can return in Week 5 against Washington.
