ESPN's Adam Schefter reports that Bears rookie ILB Roquan Smith and OLB Khalil Mack will not play the whole game Sunday night against the Packers. Mack, of course, recently joined the team after holding out through August. Smith arrived mid-August after an extended negotiation over his rookie deal, and then lost time to a hamstring issue. Each should show up some on the stat sheet and remains a potential full-season IDP stud. But it's tough to trust either new Bears defender in Week 1 IDP lineups.

Bears DT Eddie Goldman (knee, ankle) is inactive for tonight's game against the Rams. He hit the day doubtful, so this was expected. The 4 defensive starters who turned up questionable are all active for the game: OLB Khalil Mack (groin), S Tashaun Gipson (back), OLB Robert Quinn (back) and S Eddie Jackson (wrist).

Bears OLB Khalil Mack (groin) and S Eddie Jackson (wrist) are questionable for Sunday night's game against the Rams. Mack finished the week with a full practice Friday, and Jackson put in full practices every day. We'd bet on both players being active.

Bears OLB Khalil Mack (shoulder) and DL Akiem Hicks (ankle) are active for today's game against the Jaguars.

Bears OLB Khalil Mack (shoulder) and DL Akiem Hicks (ankle) are questionable for Sunday's game against the Jaguars. Hicks put in just a limited Friday after missing the previous 2 days of practice. Mack went full, no practice and then limited over the 3 days. We'll check the status for both on Sunday morning. Starting CB Jaylon Johnson (shoulder) has been ruled out for the 2nd straight game.

Bears OLB Khalil Mack (ankle) and S Eddie Jackson (knee) are active for today's game against the Saints. Each arrived questionable but is available if you were waiting on him for your IDP lineup.
