Bears' Tyrique Stevenson: DNP with shoulder injury
Rotowire
Stevenson (shoulder) did not practice Wednesday.
Stevenson missed Week 8 with the shoulder injury and has been managing it in practice the past couple weeks. He played 100 percent of the defensive snaps in last Sunday's win over the Giants.

Bears' Tyrique Stevenson: Registers six solo tackles
Rotowire
Stevenson made six solo tackles in the Bears' 47-42 win over the Bengals on Sunday.
Stevenson returned after missing one game with a shoulder injury and resumed his full-time starting role at cornerback. He offers a steady tackle floor -- he hasn't had less than three in any game this season -- and remains a viable CB streamer in IDP formats.

Bears' Tyrique Stevenson: Doesn't practice to begin Week 8
Rotowire
Stevenson (shoulder) did not practice Wednesday.
Stevenson hurt his shoulder in the second half of this past Sunday's win over New Orleans and did not return. His DNP to begin Week 8 prep casts some concern about his status for this Sunday's matchup against the Ravens, though Stevenson will have two more days this week to return to practice. Should he be unable to play against the Ravens, Nick McCloud could be pressed into a starting role.

Bears' Tyrique Stevenson: Doubtful to return
Rotowire
Stevenson (shoulder) is doubtful to return to Sunday's game against New Orleans.
Stevenson thus is unlikely to get back into this Week 7 contest. The Miami (FL) product has started every game for the Bears this year, and had three tackles and a pass deflection before getting injured this week.

Bears' Tyrique Stevenson: Strong outing in win
Rotowire
Stevenson intercepted a pass and posted six stops in the Bears' 25-24 win over the Raiders on Sunday.
The interception was Stevenson's first of the season. While he has posted six or seven tackles in two of the last three games, the two contests in which he's been limited to three stops make him a volatile IDP and difficult to trust for weekly consistency.

Bears' Tyrique Stevenson: Productive in defeat
Rotowire
Stevenson totaled seven tackles in the Bears' 52-21 loss to the Lions on Sunday.
Stevenson tied for second on the Bears in tackles after recording just three stops in the season opener. Unless his production stabilizes, the cornerback is looking like a volatile IDP performer.

Bears' Tyrique Stevenson: Unlikely to start Week 9
Rotowire
Stevenson isn't expected to start in Sunday's game against the Cardinals, but he will be active for the contest and is expected to rotate with Terell Smith, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.
Stevenson had started in each of the Bears' six games that he's been healthy enough to play thus far, logging 35 tackles, six pass breakups and an interception, which he returned for a touchdown in a Week 1 win over the Titans. However, Stevenson will be on the bench to begin Sunday's contest as a punishment for his actions on the final play of last week's 18-15 loss to the Commanders, when Chicago gave up a 52-yard Hail Mary touchdown with no time remaining. Prior to the final snap, Stevenson was seen making celebratory gestures toward Washington fans, which caused him to be late to get in position for Jayden Daniels' Hail Mary. Stevenson ultimately got his hand on the ball, only to tip it up in the air and into the waiting hands of Commanders receiver Noah Brown, who secured the touchdown catch. Stevenson has since expressed contrition for his role on the final play, and he's expected to be back in the starting lineup in Week 10 against the Patriots.

Bears' Tyrique Stevenson: Nine tackles in losing effort
Rotowire
Stevenson recorded nine tackles in the Bears' 18-15 loss to the Commanders on Sunday.
Though Stevenson set a new season high in tackles, he attracted negative attention when he appeared to taunt Commanders fans before the final play of the game. Stevenson then arrived late to the scrum at the goal line while awaiting Commanders quarterback Jayden Daniels' Hail Mary attempt, knocking the ball in the air and into the waiting hands of Washington receiver Noah Brown for a game-winning touchdown with no time remaining. Despite his poor execution on the final play, Stevenson remains locked into a starting role in the Chicago secondary opposite Jaylon Johnson. Through six games, Stevenson has tallied 35 tackles, six pass breakups and one interception, which he returned for a touchdown in Week 1.

Bears' Tyrique Stevenson: Not playing Sunday
Rotowire
Stevenson (calf) is inactive for Sunday's game against the Jaguars in London.
Stevenson's absence was fully expected, as he was listed as doubtful heading into the weekend after he was a limited participant in Thursday's practice before sitting out Friday's session entirely. With the Bears on bye Week 7, Stevenson will have some extended time to recover from the calf issue before potentially returning to action for Chicago's Oct. 27 game in Washington in Week 8.

Bears' Tyrique Stevenson: Expected to retain starting role
Rotowire
Stevenson is projected to be the starting outside cornerback for the Bears, playing across from Jaylon Johnson.
After Chicago selected Stevenson in the second round of the 2023 draft, he moved right into a full-time role. Although Stevenson recorded at least six tackles in five of his first eight games, he didn't have another game with more than five tackles until Week 18. It is possible the cornerback continues to improve in his second year, and if that happens, Stevenson may become a more more consistent IDP option.

Bears' Tyrique Stevenson: Strong rookie season
Rotowire
Stevenson tallied seven tackles in the Bears' 17-9 loss to the Packers on Sunday.
Stevenson was selected in the second round of the 2023 draft and quickly rounded into a solid starter for the Bears. In 16 games, the cornerback tallied 86 tackles, four interceptions and a forced fumble. However, his IDP performance fell as the season progressed. Stevenson had recorded at least six tackles in five of his first eight games, but he didn't have another game with more than five tackles until Week 18. Regardless, he'll be considered a high-floor IDP in 2024 drafts. Stevenson will be going into the second year of his four-year rookie contract.

Stevenson had not posted an interception until Week 11, but he now has four picks over his last five games. Also, the rookie has tallied between three and five tackles in each of his last six games. He'll remain a moderate-floor IDP with interception upside in Week 18 at Green Bay.

Stevenson (ankle) is inactive for Monday's game against the Vikings, Larry Mayer of the team's official site reports.

Bears' Tyrique Stevenson: Able to practice in full Monday
Rotowire
Stevenson (ankle) was a full participant in Chicago's practice Monday.
Stevenson suffered an ankle injury during Sunday's Week 9 loss to New Orleans, but his ability to practice without restrictions one day later suggests the issue isn't serious.
