Bears and the Philadelphia Eagles in advance of Sunday's Wildcard game."EDIT: Late Saturday night the Bears announced that tight end Trey Burton was added to the injury report as questionable with a groin issue.With kickoff at 3:40 pm (Central) on Sunday Chicago Bears Jerseys Stitched , the Bears need to announce their inactive list at 2:10 pm. If Burton can’t go it could increase the role from #2 tight end Adam Shaheen, and backups Ben Braunecker and Daniel Brown could see some extra snaps as well. Then again the Bears could elect to run more three wide out sets now that their top three wide outs (Robinson, Gabriel, and Miller) are all healthy. Backing up at receiver are Josh Bellamy, Kevin White and Javon Wims. What do you guys make of this latest development?Friday, January 4 - The Chicago Bears aren’t completely healthy heading into their first playoff game in eight years, but the training room at Halas Hall hasn’t exactly been a busy place this season. Outside linebacker Aaron Lynch hasn’t played or practiced since injuring his elbow on December 15 against the Green Bay Packers Stephen Denmark Jersey 2019 , and he’s listed as doubtful. My guess is he does not play on Sunday against the Philadelphia Eagles. Free safety Eddie Jackson was hurt in that same game, but his ankle is progressing a bit better and he’s listed as questionable after practicing in a limited capacity the last two days. My guess is he plays on Sunday.Defensive lineman Bilal Nichols is also questionable with that knee issue, but lately he’s always questionable and he always plays. Safety Deandre Houston-Carson also popped up on the injury report today with a rib injury and since he missed practice he was listed as questionable. Wide outs Allen Robinson II (ribs), Taylor Gabriel (ribs), and Anthony Miller (shoulder) have been full participants this week at practice and all will play. For the Philadelphia Eagles they list the following players as out. LB - D.J. Alexander (hamstring)CB - Sidney Jones (hamstring)WR - Mike Wallace (ankle)QB - Carson Wentz (back)And they list the following players as questionable. DE - Michael Bennett (foot)CB - Avonte Maddox (oblique)LT - Jason Peters (quadricep)LG - Isaac Seumalo (chest)The Eagles announced yesterday that Seumalo would be back starting at left guard, so I’d expect him be be good enough to play. Peters has also practiced this week, so him missing is unlikely. It was also reported that Maddox was going to fine and should play. Bennett has been dealing with his injury for a while Cheap Stephen Denmark Jersey , but it hasn’t stopped him from playing this season. I’d expect him to play. The league’s best wide receiver sat out voluntary OTAs and the start of minicamp last season before he was given a pay bump."WhiteFanposts Fanshots Library FalcFans Podcast on The FalcoholicContact The FalcoholicFalcons StoriesScheduleRosterStatsYahoo Falcons NewsYahoo Falcons Team PageYahoo Falcons ReportYahoo Falcons Depth ChartYahoo Falcons TransactionsYahoo Falcons PhotosOdds About Masthead Community Guidelines StubHub ✕Julio Jones skips start of voluntary OTAs amid contract negotiationsNew,39commentsThe league’s best wide receiver sat out voluntary OTAs and the start of minicamp last season before he was given a pay bump.EDTShareTweetShareShareJulio Jones skips start of voluntary OTAs amid contract negotiationsKim Klement-USA TODAY SportsPlayers started reporting Monday for the start of organized team activities and there is one notable missing player. Actually, there are probably multiple notable missing players as OTAs are voluntary and veterans tend to prepare away from team HQ. OTAs are primarily workouts that are regulated and limited by the CBA. It helps some players get back into the groove, but it is possible some stay away to prepare more than allowed at OTAs.The notable player, for the second year in a row, is Julio Jones. Per D. Orlando Ledbetter of the Atlanta Journal-Constitution, Jones did not report to Flowery Branch on Monday. Also of interest is Ledbetter noting that Jones was “promised” a new deal this offseason. First Youth Dan Hampton Jerseys , Jones skipped at least some OTAs in 2018 and 2017, and he was still consistently dominant on a week-to-week basis. Jones eventually missed out on a few days of mandatory minicamp last offseason, but was never out of shape or otherwise struggled with his playbook. In fact, it is common for veteran, Pro Bowl-quality players to consistently skip OTAs and workout elsewhere.Second, we have heard the team informed Julio they planned to get an extension done this offseason, but “promised” is a strong word . Still Youth Joel Iyiegbuniwe Jerseys , it is becoming frustrating to see the Falcons express optimism about contract extensions that continue to linger. Grady Jarrett should have been extended before free agency, if not last season. The Falcons have been confident a deal will be worked out, and two months ago a bad rumor suggested the team was “closing in” on a deal that has still yet to materialize.For whatever reason, we have another offseason of contract extensions dragging far longer than they should. It is still early enough but Julio’s absence suggests they are not “closing in” on a deal. The Falcons may have again hurt themselves by allowing another market-setting deal go through when Antonio Brown netted nearly $30 million guaranteed across three years, with a total of potential cash just above $50 million.Odds are a deal gets worked out and this situation is quickly forgotten. At the same time, an unnecessary holdout could create a giant headache for the mostly new coaching staff needing to get this team to the playoffs.
