Bears Keep Odunze Out as Lions List Eight DNPs on Week 18 Report
Chicago is likely to hold the receiver until the playoffs to safeguard a stress-fractured foot.
Overview
- The Bears’ Wednesday session was a walk-through, so the injury report listed participation as an estimation.
- Rome Odunze (foot) and Joe Tryon-Shoyinka (concussion) were the only Bears listed as DNP.
- Rookie Luther Burden III returned as a limited participant with a quad injury after being carted off Sunday, and coach Ben Johnson expects him to be fine.
- Olamide Zaccheaus was a full participant after an illness, while Josh Blackwell, Nick McCloud and Ozzy Trapilo were limited.
- Detroit reported eight DNPs, including Amon-Ra St. Brown, Penei Sewell, Alex Anzalone, Thomas Harper and Alim McNeill, and Dan Campbell said he would sit questionable injured players even as he plans to play to win; Chicago can clinch the No. 2 seed Sunday.
