Bears' first injury report for Divisional Round vs. Rams looks good

The Chicago Bears published their first injury report of the week, and there's a chance some key players will return against the Rams.

The Chicago Bears released their first injury report of the Divisional Round week, and it's not all bad news.

In fact, it's looking pretty solid.

Here's who showed up on what was an estimated practice report:

  • Nick McCloud, CB (Groin, DNP)
  • DJ Moore, WR (Knee, Limited)
  • Rome Odunze, WR (Foot, Limited)
  • Jalen Reeves-Maybin, LB (Back, Limited)
  • C.J. Gardner-Johnson, CB (Concussion, Full)
  • Braxton Jones, OT (Knee, Full)
  • Amen Ogbongbemiga, LB (Concussion, Full)
  • Joe Tryon-Shoyinka, DL (Concussion, Full)

The Bears held a walkthrough on Wednesday, which is why participation was estimated.

Both the offense and defense got some good news on Wednesday's report. Cornerback C.J. Gardner-Johnson looks like he'll make his return to the lineup after missing the Wild Card game with a concussion, and left tackle Braxton Jones should be good to go in case he's called upon to play on Sunday.

Starting left tackle Ozzy Trapilo is out for the rest of the playoffs with a knee injury, and while most analysts assume Theo Benedet will start in his place, having Jones healthy and ready to play is a definite plus.

The Bears-Ram Divisional Round game will get underway on Sunday, January 18, at 5:30 p.m. CT (6:30 p.m. EST) from Soldier Field.
