Starting Saturday Shelley is in line to start at cornerback opposite Patrick Peterson in Saturday's matchup with the Giants, Chris Tomasson of the St. Paul Pioneer Press reports.
Impact Shelley is getting the start in place of Cameron Dantzler (ankle). As a result, he will presumably see a bigger snap count than usual. Also, Kalon Barnes, Chandon Sullivan and Kris Boyd could see some extra snaps providing depth in the secondary.

Has key pass breakup Shelley played three snaps on defense in Sunday's win over Buffalo, but had a key pass breakup in the end zone on the final series in overtime.
Impact Shelly was pressed into action when Akayleb Evans left with a concussion. It's a side note to a wild game, but the little-used Shelley likely saved the game by breaking up a touchdown pass intended for Dawson Knox. He could have a larger role next week if Evans is out.

Returns from injury Shelley (heel) participated at OTAs last week, Alyssa Barbieri of USA Today reports.
Impact Shelley missed six of the final seven games of 2021 due to the heel injury, but he's back on the field ahead of the 2022 campaign. The 25-year-old is a favorite to start at cornerback after posting a career-high 37 tackles and three pass breakups last season, though he's still looking for his first career interception.

Inactive for season finale Shelley (heel) was inactive in Week 18 and ended the season with 37 tackles and three passes defensed.
Impact Although he posted the highest tackle total of his three-year career, Shelley was a very inconsistent fantasy producer. Should he be able to stay atop the Bears' depth chart at cornerback, he'd have potential as a solid floor option in IDP leagues. He's signed through the 2022 season, so he could find himself playing for his second NFL contract next year.

Won't play in finale Shelley (heel) is inactive Week 18 against the Vikings.
Impact Shelley was back in practice in a full capacity this week, but that won't be enough to prevent him from missing his fifth game out of the Bears' last six contests. Cornerbacks Thomas Graham and Artie Burns would be candidates to see extra snaps in his stead.
