The Chicago Bears are gearing up for their Week 18 regular-season finale against the Detroit Lions on Sunday, where Chicago has an opportunity to clinch the No. 2 seed heading into the playoffs.
After a walk-thru on Wednesday, the Bears practiced for the first time on Thursday. There was an encouraging update on rookie receiver Luther Burden III, who practiced in full just days after suffering a quad injury in Week 17. Meanwhile, receiver Rome Odunze remained sidelined with a foot injury. Rookie tackle Ozzy Trapilo was once again limited with knee/quad injuries and right guard Jonah Jackson was the latest to catch the flu going around Halas Hall.
Here’s a look at the Thursday injury reports for the Bears and Lions:
