Overview
- Right tackle Darnell Wright missed a second straight practice with an elbow injury, leaving his Week 4 availability uncertain.
- Swing tackle Theo Benedet is positioned to start at right tackle if Wright cannot go, with rookie Ozzy Trapilo likely elevating to swing duty.
- The Raiders frequently move Maxx Crosby across the front, and the Bears expect to account for him on every snap, especially over the right side.
- Chicago’s rushing attack ranks near the bottom of the league in EPA and rush yards over expected, and coaches cite execution between backs and linemen as the fix.
- After allowing zero sacks in the Week 3 win, the Bears reported additional injuries Thursday, with T.J. Edwards, Kyler Gordon, Grady Jarrett and Colston Loveland out, Jaylon Jones and D’Andre Swift limited, and Cole Kmet back to full participation.
