Velus Jones Injury News
View AllSt. Brown concussed
Bears WR Equanimeous St. Brown sustained a concussion in the 1st quarter of Sunday's game vs. the Eagles and has been ruled out. That leaves Chicago with WRs Dante Pettis, Byron Pringle and Velus Jones.
Claypool out for Week 15
Bears WR Chase Claypool (knee) is out for Sunday's game vs. the Eagles. We don't have any details on his injury, but Claypool didn't practice all week. With WR Darnell Mooney also out, Chicago is down to WRs Equanimeous St. Brown, Dante Pettis, Byron Pringle, N'Keal Harry and Velus Jones. TE Cole Kmet is the clear favorite to lead the Bears in targets this weekend.
Jones questionable for Week 4
Bears WR Velus Jones (hamstring) is questionable for this weekend’s game vs. the Giants. He was a full participant in Friday’s practice, so it looks like he’s ready to make his NFL debut. Jones, of course, is nowhere close to being a fantasy option.
