The Bears placed Street (knee) on injured reserve Wednesday, Adam Jahns of AllCHGO.com reports.
Street was injured in Monday night's win over the Seahawks and had to be carted to the locker room. He's now expected to miss the remainder of the 2026 season. Fellow DT Grady Jarrett (groin) was also injured in Seattle, making the move for Jeffery Simmons that much more important for Chicago.

Rotowire
Muhammad (toe) was a limited participant at the Bears' walkthrough practice Wednesday.
Muhammad missed the team's Week 8 win over the Seahawks on Monday Night Football while nursing a toe injury that he suffered a week prior. The cornerback has now picked up where he left off at practice last week, logging a fourth straight limited session, and he will have two more chances to practice in full before Sunday's contest versus the Buccaneers.

Bears' D'Marco Jackson: Set for MNF
Rotowire
Jackson (ankle) is active for Monday night's game against the Seahawks.
Jackson was listed as questionable Saturday after returning to full participation. The outside linebacker has ultimately been able to overcome his ankle injury and is set to suit up opposite Devin Bush as the Bears take on the defending Super Bowl champs in primetime.

Bears' Malik Muhammad: Won't play with toe issue
Rotowire
Muhammad (toe) is inactive for Monday's game against the Seahawks.
Muhammad injured his toe in the Bears' Week 7 win over the Patriots. The cornerback's three consecutive limited practice sessions during Week 8 prep were evidently not enough to suit up, and the reserve option will be sidelined for Monday Night Football. Josh Blackwell and Clark Phillips are set to be the reserve options at outside cornerback for the game.

Anthony Johnson: Let go from practice squad IL
Rotowire
The Bears cut Johnson (undisclosed) from the practice squad injured list Saturday, Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2 Houston reports.
Now that he's been cut, Johnson will have the opportunity to find work with another team in need of depth in the secondary. He last saw regular-season action in 2024 with the Giants, when he logged five tackles (two solo) and one pass defense across nine games.

Bears' Jack Sanborn: Passes concussion protocol
Rotowire
Sanborn (concussion) does not carry an injury designation into Monday's game against the Seahawks.
Sanborn was unable to play against the Patriots in Week 7 due to a concussion, but he was a full participant in all three practices of Week 8 prep, and he has cleared the league's protocol after passing an evaluation from an independent neurologist. He has four tackles (three solo) across six regular-season games while serving mostly on special teams.

Bears' T.J. Edwards: Good to go for Week 8
Rotowire
Edwards (hamstring) does not have an injury designation for Monday's tilt against the Seahawks.
Edwards missed Chicago's previous two games after suffering a hamstring injury in Week 5 versus Green Bay. The veteran linebacker was able to log a trio of full practices this week, and he's set to return to game action Monday. Edwards logged every Bears defensive snap in each of the team's first four contests this season, so he should be set for a hearty workload against Seattle.

Bears' D'Marco Jackson: Deemed questionable for MNF
Rotowire
Jackson (ankle) is questionable to suit up Monday versus Seattle.
Jackson's practice status fluctuated during the week, as he was limited Thursday, didn't participate Friday, and logged a full session Saturday. Despite being a full-go in the final practice of the week, the veteran linebacker isn't entirely in the clear for the Monday night matchup in Seattle. T.J. Edwards is slated to return Monday from a two-game absence, so the Bears could have a fortified linebacker corps if Jackson is able to suit up.

Rotowire
Edwards (hamstring) was considered to be a full participant on the Bears' estimated practice report Thursday.
Edwards was forced to miss the team's last two games while nursing a hamstring injury, but he appears to be on track to return to action in Week 8. The linebacker will have two more chances to officially log a full practice prior to Monday night's matchup with the Seahawks.

Bears' Coby Bryant: On track in recovery
Rotowire
Coach Ben Johnson said Wednesday that Bryant (knee) will start running again in the "near future," Courtney Cronin of ESPN.com reports.
Johnson said that Bryant's timeline for return is still indefinite, but it still looks like a possibility he could be back on the field as soon as December or January. He is recovering from a knee surgery he underwent back in August after he suffered a hyperextension during training camp. Per Cronin, he is still on a 4-6 month timeline to return.

Nick McCloud: Released by Chicago
Rotowire
The Bears released McCloud on Tuesday.
McCloud appeared in two regular-season games for the Bears, and during that span, he recovered one fumble and did not log a tackle. The veteran defensive back will hit the open market and look to join a team in need of help in the secondary and on special teams.

Bears' Kyler Gordon: Picks up another sack in win Thursday
Rotowire
Gordon recorded five tackles (three solo), including 1.0 sacks, in Thursday's 30-24 win over the Patriots.
Gordon's sack came early -- he brought down Drake Maye for a loss of one yard on a fourth-down play during the Patriots' first offensive drive. The star cornerback has been a terror for opposing offenses through his first two games, as he's already blown by his previous career high with 4.0 sacks. Gordon has done that despite playing a modest 48 defensive snaps across the two contests. He upped his snap share to 58 percent Thursday (after posting a 31 percent mark in his season debut Week 6) and should continue to increase his time on the field as he moves further past a calf injury.

Bears' Dillon Thieneman: Leads Bears in tackles Thursday
Rotowire
Thieneman tallied eight tackles (three solo), including 0.5 sacks, in a 30-24 victory versus the Patriots on Thursday.
Thieneman's eight stops led the Bears. The rookie safety also got to the quarterback for a second straight game, as he was credited with a half-sack of Drake Maye in the fourth quarter. Thieneman has already established himself as a viable IDP asset, posting at least six tackles in six of seven contests and recording 1.5 sacks along with an interception through seven games.

Bears' D'Marco Jackson: Picks off Maye on Thursday Night Football
Rotowire
Jackson finished with six tackles (three solo) and an interception Thursday in a 30-24 victory over New England.
Jackson's six stops were good for second-most on Chicago. However, his biggest impact came on a second-quarter interception of Drake Maye in the Bears' end zone to snuff out what looked to be a Patriots scoring drive. Jackson played every Chicago defensive snap Thursday and has posted a snap share of over 79 percent each of the past three weeks after logging less than half of the team's defensive snaps Weeks 1-4.

Bears' Montez Sweat: Reinstated from suspension
Rotowire
The NFL reinstated Sweat after he served a two-game suspension for violating the league's performance-enhancing substances policy.
The defensive end is set to return to practice in Week 8 and should play in the team's Monday Night Football showdown against the Seahawks. Sweat has logged seven tackles (two solo), including 2.0 sacks, over his five regular-season appearances so far in 2026.

Bears' Malik Muhammad: Dealing with toe injury
Rotowire
Muhammad (toe) is doubtful to return to Thursday night's contest against the Patriots.
Muhammad is dealing with a toe injury, and he will now likely be forced to watch the remainder of the game from the Bears' sideline. In Muhammad's absence, Josh Blackwell and Clark Phillips are both candidates to see an increase in workload at cornerback.

Bears' T.J. Edwards: Unavailable for TNF
Rotowire
Edwards (hamstring) is inactive for Thursday night's matchup against New England.
Edwards is still working his way back from a hamstring injury that he suffered in Week 5 against the Packers, and he will now be forced to miss a second straight contest. In his absence, Noah Sewell will stand to draw the start at middle linebacker versus the Patriots.

Bears' Jack Sanborn: Won't play Thursday
Rotowire
Sanborn (concussion) is officially listed as out for Thursday's game versus the Patriots.
The Bears held only walk-through practices ahead of Thursday's contest, but Sanborn was estimated as a nonparticipant Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday, and he'll now miss his first game of the season in Week 7. Most of his snaps so far in 2026 have come on special teams, so Chicago will have to find a way to try to replace his production in that phase.
