Eagles-Bears Injury Report Sends Mixed Messages as Both Teams Face Challenges Ahead of Week 13 Matchup.
The Philadelphia Eagles are set to face a significant test in their upcoming Week 13 matchup against the Chicago Bears. The Eagles' offense will be missing Lane Johnson, who has struggled with injuries this season and was replaced by Fred Johnson in his absence. However, it's worth noting that Johnson was not placed on injured reserve (IR), which suggests that the team believes he can return to action within three or fewer games.
The Eagles' defense is also dealing with some injury concerns, particularly at cornerback, where Mac McWilliams has been a regular inactive player this season. Andrew Mukuba and Sydney Brown will likely replace Sam Howell as the emergency quarterback in case of an injury.
On the other hand, the Bears are facing a daunting challenge on their own side of the ball. The team is severely depleted at linebacker, with only D'Marco Jackson and Amen Ogbongbemiga set to start. The absence of Tremaine Edmunds, who was placed on IR earlier in the season, has created significant uncertainty at this critical defensive position.
Defensively, both teams will be missing key contributors due to injury. For the Eagles, it is Ty Robinson who will not play. While for the Bears, Dominique Robinson and Jaylon Johnson are out of action after suffering hip and ACL injuries respectively
