Active for Week 8 Hicks (groin) is active for Sunday's matchup against the 49ers.
Impact Hicks has missed two of the Bears' last three games due to an aggravated groin injury, but he will be available Sunday. The 32-year-old got off to a hot start, registering 10 tackles and half a sack through the first three games of the season, but the injury halted his hot start. He will look to get back on track against the 49ers on Sunday.

Questionable for Sunday Hicks (groin) is considered questionable for the Bears' Week 8 contest against the 49ers on Sunday.
Impact Hicks has missed two of the Bears' last three games with an aggravated groin injury that he's been dealing with since Week 4. The 32-year-old was able to log full participation in practice Friday ahead of Week 8, a potentially good sign for his chances of suiting up. Expect Angelo Blackson to see an increased workload once again if Hicks is unable to suit up Sunday.

Limited practice Wednesday Hicks (groin) practiced in a limited capacity for the Bears on Wednesday.
Impact The 32-year-old has been dealing with the injury for almost a month now, playing in only one game since Week 4. After missing last week's game against the Buccaneers, a practice to open the week is a good sign for his availability versus the 49ers in Week 8. If he still can't return Sunday, Angelo Blackson will handle an increased workload once again.

Ruled out for Week 7 Hicks (groin) has been downgraded to out for Sunday's game against the Buccaneers, Kevin Fishbain of The Athletic reports.
Impact Hicks was previously listed as questionable for the Bears' matchup with the Buccaneers, but he did not travel with the team and has been ruled out. Hicks is still dealing with a groin injury he suffered in Week 4. After missing Week 5, the 31-year-old was able to play through the injury in Week 6 against the Packers. It appears Hicks likely suffered a setback ahead of a road game at Tampa Bay, so the 6-foot-4, 335-pounder will now look to get back to the field in Week 8 when the Bears take on the 49ers. In Hicks' absence, Angelo Blackson is a likely candidate to take on a starting role.

Questionable against Bucs Hicks (groin) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Buccaneers.
Impact Hicks is still bothered by a groin injury that limited him to one snap in Week 4 and kept him out entirely in Week 5. On the bright side, he was able to play through it against the Packers last week and picked up a sack. Hicks missed practice Wednesday and Thursday before practicing in a limited fashion Friday.
