Bears OG Teven Jenkins (ankle) out, DE Montez Sweat (ankle) questionable vs. Pack

Chicago Bears left guard Teven Jenkins has been ruled out for Sunday against the Green Bay Packers because of an ankle injury, while defensive end Montez Sweat is questionable due to an ankle issue.

The Bears also said rookie offensive lineman Kiran Amegadjie (calf) will not play after he, like Jenkins, missed practice all week. Amegadjie has played as a reserve in four games for Chicago (4-5).

It wasn’t all bad news for Chicago’s offensive line, as starting tackles Braxton Jones (knee) and Darnell Wright (knee), who both were limited at practice Wednesday and Thursday, were full participants Friday and are expected to play Sunday.

“It’s huge,” Bears coach Matt Eberflus said Friday of Jones and Wright. “Those guys have a lot of experience. The continuity is there. Working with each other, next to each other, is there. I think it’s important you have that. Those guys have played well.”

Jones has not played since Oct. 27 after seven starts, while Wright last played on Nov. 3 and has eight starts.

Defensive back Tarvarius Moore (concussion) was listed as questionable after his progression from not practicing on Wednesday to limited on Thursday and a full participant on Friday.

Jenkins, 26, has not practiced all week. He has started all nine games this season for the Bears, who selected him in the second round of the 2021 NFL Draft. He has started 33 of 40 games in his career.

Sweat, 28, missed practice on Wednesday and was limited on Thursday before a full session on Friday.

He made the Pro Bowl last season after the Washington Commanders traded him to the Bears for a 2024 second-round pick. He has started all eight games he has played this season and has 16 tackles, 3.5 sacks, five tackles for loss and one forced fumble.

For his career, Sweat has 238 tackles, 45 sacks, 56 tackles for loss, one interception — returned for a touchdown — and 11 forced fumbles in 84 games (all starts) for Washington (2019-23) and Chicago.
