Bears vs. Jets Injury Report: Braxton Jones out for Chicago, N.Y. down 4 starters

Ahead of their upcoming matchup in the Windy City, both the Chicago Bears and the New York Jets are dealing with significant roster attrition. Chicago will be missing starting left tackle Braxton Jones due to a knee injury he picked up on Monday night, with Theo Benedet stepping into the starting role.

Meanwhile, head coach Ben Johnson announced that Caleb Williams remains sidelined for a second straight week because of a hamstring issue, though he has not yet declared whether Tyson Bagent or Case Keenum will take the snaps under center. Several other Chicago players, including Ozzy Trapilo, Shemar Turner, Noah Sewell, Kyler Gordon, and Cam Lewis, are also managing various injury statuses.

The visiting Jets face even deeper personnel challenges, having ruled out four starters in Breece Hall, Adonai Mitchell, Dylan Parham, and Mason Taylor, alongside backup linebacker Kiko Mauigoa. Despite those absences, New York will welcome back veteran Pro Bowl safety Minkah Fitzpatrick following his two-game absence.
