Bears vs. Packers: Jaylon Johnson inactive in Week 18
Jaylon Johnson headlines the Chicago Bears' inactive list in Week 18 against the Green Bay Packers.
The Chicago Bears will be without Pro Bowl cornerback Jaylon Johnson in Week 18's matchup against the Green Bay Packers. The soon-to-be free-agent stud will miss the season finale with a shoulder injury.
Johnson is joined on the inactive list by running back D'Onta Foreman, whose fall down the depth chart in recent weeks may be a sign that we've seen the last of the veteran runner in a Bears uniform.

Wide receiver Darnell Mooney won't play either. The fourth-year wideout hasn't cleared the concussion protocol. He, like Johnson, is scheduled to become a free agent this offseason, and his underwhelming 2023 season makes it unlikely the Chicago Bears will pay top dollar to re-sign him.
Chicago has plenty to play for against the Packers in the finale. A victory likely knocks Green Bay out of the post-season, which is the biggest game of the year for a Bears team that's already eliminated from the playoffs. At least, for Bears fans, it is.
Kickoff between the Chicago Bears and Green Bay Packers is scheduled for 3:25 pm. CST (4:25 p.m. EST) from Lambeau Field.
