Overview
- Amon-Ra St. Brown was upgraded to limited participation Thursday after a Wednesday DNP as he manages a knee/ankle issue.
- Penei Sewell missed practice Wednesday and Thursday and was not seen during the media-viewing period as he deals with an ankle injury from the Christmas Day game.
- If Sewell cannot play in Chicago, veteran Dan Skipper is a leading replacement option, with Miles Frazier and Giovanni Manu also in the mix.
- Defensive tackle Alim McNeill (abdomen) and lineman Trystan Colon (wrist) remained out, while Alex Anzalone, Thomas Harper, Christian Mahogany, and Kayode Awosika returned in limited roles and Avonte Maddox practiced fully.
- Coach Dan Campbell reiterated he will not risk long-term health for borderline players, as Detroit is eliminated but can influence the Bears’ NFC seeding in Week 18.
