Report: Chicago Bears Jonah Jackson week-to-week with a hip flexor

Chicago Bears starting right guard Jonah Jackson left Sunday’s game against the Atlanta Falcons in the second half with a hip flexor issue, leaving his availability for the upcoming Thursday Night Game against the New England Patriots in doubt. The injury is described as week-to-week, with offensive coordinator Press Taylor indicating the team is prepared to rely on depth at the position, including second-year guard Luke Newman and Jordan McFadden, who started in the playoffs last season.

Newman stepped in for Jackson in the Falcons game and performed well in his first extended action, while Taylor emphasized the team’s confidence in both players to fill the void if needed. The Bears’ injury report also listed linebackers T.J.

Edwards and Jack Sanborn as out with hamstring and concussion issues, respectively, while running back Kyle Monangai sat out due to a thumb/toe injury. Quarterback Caleb Williams was not listed on the report, suggesting he practiced without restrictions.
