Overview
- Ben Johnson said Saturday that Ozzy Trapilo will not play Monday night against the Philadelphia Eagles and will remain under evaluation.
- Trapilo has returned to full practice after a January torn patellar tendon and was activated from the PUP list before the regular season.
- The Bears will judge Trapilo on padded team reps and his confidence putting full weight on the surgically repaired knee before granting game clearance.
- Chicago will stick with Braxton Jones as the primary left tackle with Theo Benedet in rotation while coaches monitor Trapilo's progress.
- Quarterback Tyson Bagent cleared concussion protocol and will be available, Cairo Santos returned to practice, and the team’s cautious approach aims to protect Trapilo’s long-term recovery and the roster’s continuity.
