Overview
- Detroit ruled out five players for Chicago: RT Penei Sewell (ankle), LB Alex Anzalone (concussion/personal), S Thomas Harper (concussion), DT Alim McNeill (abdomen/oblique) and OL Trystan Colon (wrist).
- The team placed Colon on injured reserve and promoted OT Chris Hubbard and TE Zach Horton from the practice squad.
- With Sewell sidelined and Gio Manu not activated, right tackle is expected to be Dan Skipper or the newly elevated Hubbard.
- WR Amon-Ra St. Brown and LT Taylor Decker are questionable, with Dan Campbell saying St. Brown is trending toward playing.
- Detroit, 8-8 and out of playoff contention, is expected to expand snaps for younger players such as Tyleik Williams and Miles Frazier against a Bears team playing for seeding.
