Impact Reiff was forced out of the Week 12 matchup versus the Jets with an apparent shoulder injury, but he since practiced fully Friday and should retain his usual starting right tackle role Sunday against Green Bay.

Riley Reiff - Good to go for Week 13 Reiff (shoulder) is active for Sunday's game against the Packers.
Khari Blasingame - Won't play Sunday Blasingame is inactive Sunday against the Packers due to an illness, Kevin Fishbain of The Athletic reports.
Impact Blasingame will sit for the first time this season, after he apparently came down with the illness in the hours leading up to kickoff since the Bears didn't include him on their injury report. Chicago will play the game without a true fullback and could turn to one of their tight ends to handle Blasingame's usual blocking functions.

Tim Boyle - Healthy scratch Sunday Boyle (coach's decision) is inactive Sunday against the Packers.
Impact Boyle will sit this one out with Justin Fields and Trevor Siemian both healthy. His next opportunity to suit up will be Week 15, with the Bears on a bye next week.
DECEMBER 4, 2022 • ROTOWIRE
Kindle Vildor - Not playing Sunday Vildor (ankle) is inactive Sunday against the Packers.
Impact Vildor will miss Week 13 despite logging a full practice Friday. His absence should lead to a heavy workload for Jaylon Johnson and Jaylon Jones, while Harrison Hand and Josh Blackwell may see increased opportunities.

Nathan Peterman - Added to active roster The Bears signed Peterman to the active roster Saturday, Tom Pelissero of NFL Network reports.
Impact Peterman was called up from the practice squad for Chicago's Week 12 loss to the Jets with starting quarterback Justin Fields inactive due to a shoulder injury. However, the practice squad signal-caller did not see any playing time behind quarterback Trevor Siemian, who wound up playing every offensive snap despite suffering an oblique injury in pregame warmups. Siemian then did not practice at all during Week 13 prep before the team eventually announced he would undergo season-ending surgery, landing him on injured reserve Saturday, per Pelissero. With Fields now expected to return for Sunday's game against Green Bay, Peterman will likely serve as the Bears' backup signal-caller for the remainder of the 2022 campaign.

Trevor Siemian - Heads to IR Siemian was placed on the Bears' injured reserve Saturday, Tom Pelissero of NFL Network reports.
Impact Siemian is set to undergo season-ending surgery for an oblique injury sustained in pregame warmups ahead of Chicago's Week 12 loss to the Jets. The 30-year-old quarterback was then ruled out for Sunday's game against the Packers, and he'll now turn his focus toward recovering ahead of the 2023 season. With Siemian done for the year, the Bears have signed Nathan Peterman from the practice squad to serve as the backup quarterback behind Justin Fields on Sunday.

Larry Borom - Won't face Packers Borom (ankle) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Packers.
Impact Borom suffered the injury during the Bears' Week 12 loss to the Jets. He was unable to practice in any capacity throughout the week, so it's no surprise that he has been ruled out. Borom's absence will cut into some of Chicago's depth at tackle.
DECEMBER 3, 2022 • ROTOWIRE
Sterling Weatherford - Ready to return Weatherford does not have an injury designation for Sunday's game against the Packers.
Impact Weatherford was forced to miss the Bears' Week 12 loss due to a concussion. However, he practiced in full throughout the week and will return after a one-game absence. In 11 games this season, Weatherford has played 175 of his 177 snaps on special teams while recording four total tackles.

Kindle Vildor - Questionable Sunday Vildor (ankle) is questionable for Sunday's game against the Packers.
Impact Vildor practiced fully Friday after being limited Wednesday and Thursday, but he'll still carry a questionable tag ahead of Week 13. However, it wouldn't be surprising to see him suit up since he seems to be trending in the right direction.
DECEMBER 2, 2022 • ROTOWIRE
Kyler Gordon - Won't play against Packers Gordon (concussion) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against Green Bay.
Impact Gordon continues to deal with a concussion and will be unavailable for a second consecutive game. He'll have an additional week to rest since the Bears have a Week 14 bye, and his next chance to take the field will be Dec. 18 against Philadelphia.
DECEMBER 2, 2022 • ROTOWIRE
Jaquan Brisker - Unavailable against Green Bay Brisker (concussion) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Packers.
Impact Brisker remains in the league's concussion protocols and will be sidelined for a second consecutive game after failing to practice this week. His next chance to suit up will be Dec. 18 against the Eagles.
DECEMBER 2, 2022 • ROTOWIRE
Dante Pettis - No injury designation Pettis (illness) doesn't have an injury designation for Sunday's game against the Packers.
Impact Pettis was unable to practice Wednesday or Thursday due to an illness, but he practiced in a full capacity Friday and is good to go for Week 13. Over the last four games, he's secured three of four targets for 33 yards while rushing once for eight yards.
DECEMBER 2, 2022 • ROTOWIRE
Trevor Siemian - To undergo season-ending surgery Coach Matt Eberflus said Friday that Siemian will undergo season-ending surgery on his oblique, Jason Lieser of the Chicago Sun-Times reports.
Impact Siemian was slated to fill in for an absent Justin Fields (shoulder) this past Sunday at the Jets, but he injured his oblique in warmups and suddenly was a game-time decision. He ended up playing through the pain and logged all 56 offense snaps in the loss while completing 14 of 25 passes for 179 yards, one touchdown and one interception. In the wake of the performance, Siemian was unable to practice during Week 13 prep and now will be sidelined for the rest of the campaign. Fields is in line to return Sunday against the Packers, and Eberflus noted practice-squad member Nathan Peterman will be the backup quarterback, even with the Bears signing Tim Boyle of the Lions' practice squad Wednesday.

Justin Fields - Will return Sunday Fields (shoulder) practiced fully Friday and doesn't have a designation for Sunday's contest against the Packers, Courtney Cronin of ESPN.com reports.
Impact With back-to-back uncapped practices under his belt to cap Week 13 prep, Fields is healthy enough to play through the separated shoulder with partially torn ligaments in his left, non-throwing shoulder. He'll thus miss just one game as a result, and his upcoming foe is a familiar one in an NFC North rival. Green Bay's defense allowed Eagles quarterback Jalen Hurts to run rampant for 157 yards on 17 carries this past Sunday, so Fields has an appealing matchup with which to continue his run of success prior to sitting out Week 12.

Should Bears play Justin Fields Sunday? What's at stake now and in future
Justin Fields injured his shoulder two weeks ago. He's participating in practice, but should the Bears risk playing him against the Packers?...DECEMBER 1, 2022
Dante Pettis - Still sitting out practice Pettis (illness) was a non-participant in Thursday's practice.
Impact Pettis has now missed both of the Bears' first two practices and will now have one more chance Friday to potentially move past the illness and get in some on-field reps before Sunday's game against the Packers. If Pettis fails to practice Friday, he'll likely carry a designation into the weekend, if he isn't ruled out for the contest entirely.

Chase Claypool - Logs full practice Claypool (knee) was a full participant in Thursday's practice.
Impact Claypool had his reps capped Wednesday on account of the knee issue, but his ability to practice fully a day later clears the way for him to play Thursday against the Packers. The third-year receiver is coming off a Week 12 outing against the Jets in which he took the field for 66 percent of the offensive snaps, his largest share since being acquired from the Steelers on Nov. 1. After working with No. 2 quarterback Trevor Siemian (oblique) last week, Claypool will likely have the luxury of being on the receiving end of targets Week 13 from Justin Fields (shoulder), who also practiced fully Thursday and appears set to put an end to his one-game absence.
DECEMBER 1, 2022 • ROTOWIRE
Justin Fields - Upgrades to full practice Fields (shoulder) was listed as a full participant in Thursday's practice, Adam Jahns of The Athletic reports.
Impact According to Kevin Fishbain of The Athletic, offensive coordinator Luke Getsy implied earlier Thursday that Fields would be listed as a limited participant in practice for the second day in a row, but the quarterback was more extensively involved in the session than the Bears initially anticipated. The development can only be seen as a positive sign for Fields' chances of returning to the starting role this weekend against the Packers, after he sat out the Bears' Week 12 loss to the Jets while recovering from an AC joint sprain to his non-throwing shoulder. Trevor Siemian received the starting assignment last week but played through an oblique injury that has now kept him from practicing Wednesday or Thursday, so the Bears could need to turn to waiver pickup Tim Boyle or practice-squad member Nathan Peterman to handle backup duties Sunday if Fields is able to start, as anticipated.
