Dolphins' Nick McCloud: Signs with Miami
The Dolphins signed McCloud to a contract Monday.
McCloud served as a reserve defensive back for the Packers in 2025, recording 27 total tackles (18 solo) and two passes defensed over 15 regular-season games. The Dolphins are currently extremely low on secondary depth due to injuries to Storm Duck (knee), Darrell Baker (undisclosed), Lonnie Johnson (leg), Omar Brown (undisclosed) and JuJu Brents (undisclosed). McCloud has a strong opportunity to compete for a 53-man roster spot throughout the preseason.

Bears' Nick McCloud: Impresses in reserve role
McCloud (groin) recorded 27 total tackles (18 solo) and two passes defensed over 15 regular-season games in 2025.
The 27-year-old from Notre Dame sustained a groin injury in Chicago's wild-card win over the Packers that held him out of the divisional-round loss to the Rams. McCloud emerged as one of the Bears' top reserve corners, making four starts while filling in for the injured Kyler Gordon during the regular season. McCloud played 431 defensive snaps this season after totaling just 214 defensive snaps across 15 appearances with the Giants and 49ers in 2024. He signed a one-year deal with the Bears in March of last year, making him an unrestricted free agent this offseason. McCloud is expected to find work as a reserve corner and special-teams contributor ahead of the 2026 season.

Bears' Nick McCloud: Won't play in divisional round
McCloud (groin) has been ruled out ahead of Sunday's divisional-round matchup against the Rams.
McCloud didn't practice all week with an apparent groin injury, so it's no surprise he won't play in Sunday's playoff contest. While the Notre Dame product is sidelined, expect C.J. Gardner-Johnson and Josh Blackwell to operate as the Bears' top slot corners during the divisional round.

Bears' Nick McCloud: Estimated a full participant
McCloud (illness) was a full participant in Tuesday's walkthrough.
McCloud missed Chicago's final two games of the regular season due to an illness, but it looks like he's fully on track to return for Saturday's wild-card round matchup against the Packers. Expect McCloud to handle a rotational role on defense as the primary backup at slot cornerback behind C.J. Gardner-Johnson (concussion).

McCloud (illness) is inactive for Sunday's game against the Lions.

Bears' Nick McCloud: Questionable for Sunday
McCloud (illness) is listed as questionable ahead of Sunday's game against the Lions.
McCloud logged limited practices throughout Week 18 as he has battled a persistent illness. The cornerback's ability to practice through the issue is a strong sign that he will be able to suit up for Sunday's contest. If the sickness proves too much for the 27-year-old, Tyrique Stevenson or Jaylon Jones will likely be the backup slot cornerback behind C.J. Gardner-Johnson for Sunday.

Bears' Nick McCloud: Still battling illness
McCloud (illness) was a limited participant in Wednesday's practice.
McCloud was unable to shake off an illness in time to be available for the Bears' Week 17 loss to the 49ers. He's still under the weather, but he'll have two more chances to increase his practice participation and likely fade an injury designation ahead of Sunday's regular-season finale against the Lions.

Bears' Nick McCloud: Out for Week 17
McCloud (illness) has been ruled out ahead of Sunday's matchup against the 49ers.
McCloud didn't practice all week due to an illness, so it's no surprise that he'll be sidelined for Sunday's contest. The Notre Dame product has appeared in 15 games this season, recording 27 total tackles and two passes defensed. Both Jaylon Jones and Tyrique Stevenson will likely have expanded roles in Chicago's secondary while McCloud is sidelined Week 17.
