Top Josh Blackwell News

  • Bears' Josh Blackwell: Good to go at Minnesota

    Blackwell (concussion) does not carry an injury designation ahead of Sunday's game against the Vikings.

    Blackwell was a full participant at practice throughout the week after sitting out Week 10 versus the Giants with a concussion, and now he's in line to suit up in Week 11. So far in 2025, he's played 121 special teams snaps compared to just three defensive snaps.

  • Bears' Josh Blackwell: Full participant in practice

    Blackwell (concussion) was a full participant in Chicago's practice Wednesday.

    Blackwell managed to practice despite suffering a concussion in the Week 10 win over the Giants. However, the 26-year-old will still have to officially clear the league's concussion protocol in order to be eligible to play in Sunday's matchup versus the Vikings.

  • Bears' Josh Blackwell: Out with concussion

    Blackwell (concussion) has been ruled out ahead of Sunday's matchup against the Giants.

    Blackwell suffered a concussion during the Bears' Week 9 victory against the Bengals. The 26-year-old cornerback was not cleared to practice at all this week and will have to sit out Sunday's game. Blackwell's absence will likely mean Luther Burden will take over as the secondary kick and punt returner, with Blackwell's absence coinciding with Burden's return to the field.

  • Bears' Josh Blackwell: Enters concussion protocol

    Blackwell was diagnosed with a concussion and ruled out for the rest of Sunday's game against the Bengals.

    Blackwell will enter the league's five-step concussion protocol, and he would have to be cleared by an independent neurologist in order to be available for the Bears' Week 10 clash against the Giants on Sunday, Nov. 9. He returned one kickoff for 23 yards prior to his exit.

  • Bears' Josh Blackwell: Extends contract

    Blackwell agreed to a two-year extension with the Bears on Thursday.

    In three seasons with the Bears, the 25-year-old undrafted free agent has recorded 44 total tackles, two forced fumbles and one interception primarily as a special teams player. The extension is reportedly worth up to $6 million, which would make him among one of the highest paid special teamers in the NFL.

  • Bears' Josh Blackwell: Picks off pass

    Blackwell tallied a tackle and an interception in the Bears' 35-16 win over the Jaguars on Sunday.

    Blackwell came into the game after Kyler Gordon left with a hamstring injury. If Gordon misses additional time, Blackwell could take over the slot corner role, making him a possible IDP fill-in.

  • Bears' Josh Blackwell: Active Thursday

    Blackwell (hamstring) is active for Thursday night's game against the Panthers.

    Blackwell was activated from injured reserve earlier in the day. The third-string cornerback has played 39 snaps on special teams and 19 on defense in two games this season.

  • Bears' Josh Blackwell: Gets activated from IR

    Chicago activated Blackwell (hamstring) from its injured reserve list Thursday, Larry Mayer of the Bears' official site reports.

    The transaction makes Blackwell available to potentially play Thursday versus the Panthers. If he suits up, he'll probably play the majority of his snaps on special teams.

  • Bears' Josh Blackwell: Slated for return

    Blackwell (hamstring) was designated to return from IR on Monday.

    Blackwell will now have a 21-day window to practice with the team before he'll need to be added to the active roster. However, the Duke product could return as soon as Thursday against the Panthers, if he's healthy enough to suit up.
