Bears activate Ozzy Trapilo (knee) from active/PUP

Ozzy Trapilo

CHI Offensive Lineman #75

Player Stats

Bears activated OT Ozzy Trapilo (knee) from the physically unable to perform list on Sunday.

Trapilo even resumed practicing today. This is quite an accomplishment. Trapilo suffered a season-ending patellar tendon rupture in the Bears’ Wild Card Round win over the Packers last year. He was expected to be sidelined “deep into next year,’ per general manager Ryan Poles, but Trapilo’s recovery has apparently gone very well. Trapilo proved himself as a capable pass protector and run blocker. He may need a while to ramp up, but the Bears are currently hosting a competition for the left tackle job. Veteran OT Braxton Jones has been sidelined with an undisclosed injury, but coach Ben Johnson recently said he could resume practicing this week. He got in one limited session last week.

Braxton Jones

CHI Offensive Lineman #70

Bears placed Braxton Jones (knee) on injured reserve.

Jones injured his knee and was considered “week to week” going forward. The good news is that this means it won’t be season-ending IR, but the Bears will be without their starting left tackle for at least four games. Theo Benedet will start in his place this week. Now healthy, Ozzy Trapilo could take over that job in the coming weeks as well.
Braxton Jones

CHI Offensive Lineman #70

Bears ruled out LT Braxton Jones (knee) for Week 4 against the Jets.

Jones is unable to play, and OT Ozzy Trapilo (knee) is not yet ready to return from his 2025 season-ending injury, so OT Theo Benedet gets the start on the left side. As far as backups go, Benedet is solid. He generally fares better as a run blocker than as a pass protector, though.
Braxton Jones

CHI Offensive Lineman #70

Bears coach Ben Johnson said LT Braxton Jones (knee) is week-to-week.

The Bears will be without their starting left tackle in Week 4 against the Jets. Johnson said second-year OT Ozzy Trapilo (knee) is “getting closer,” but he does not know if he will be able to play this week. Johnson adds that LG Joe Thuney and his backup, OG Jordan McFadden, can play offensive tackle if needed.
Ozzy Trapilo

CHI Offensive Lineman #75

The Chicago Tribune’s Brad Biggs reports that the plan is for Bears OT Ozzy Trapilo (knee) to be a full participant today.

This will be Trapilo’s first padded practice since he ruptured his patellar tendon as a rookie last season. The 2025 second-round pick was putting together a solid first season when he suffered the injury. He may not be ready to resume playing on game day yet, but he will serve as a top-tier backup and potentially even challenge for a starting job when he returns. Bears coach Ben Johnson spoke positively about LT Braxton Jones. Bears RT Darnell Wright has been playing through a knee injury.

CHI Offensive Lineman #75

Bears OT Ozzy Trapilo is inactive for Week 2 against the Vikings.

Trapilo was actually removed from the final injury report, but The Athletic reports he is still not game ready after rupturing his patellar tendon last season. It is unclear when that might be, but Trapilo is at least now trending toward contributing at some point this season. Also inactive for the Bears are QB Case Keenum, DL Jayden Loving, DL Jamree Kromah and OL Jordan McFadden.
Darnell Wright

CHI Offensive Lineman #58

Bears RT Darnell Wright (knee) was removed from the injury report and will play in Week 2 against the Vikings.

Wright is good to go against the Vikings’ blitz-happy defense. Bears OT Ozzy Trapilo (knee) was also removed from the injury report, though it is unclear whether he will actually make his 2026 debut. The second-year offensive lineman’s promising rookie season was cut short by a ruptured patellar tendon. He was listed as questionable last week before being ruled out. If active, he would likely serve as a backup, but this is great news overall.
Darnell Wright

CHI Offensive Lineman #58

Bears RT Darnell Wright (knee) resumed practicing on Thursday.

Wright’s return and OT Ozzy Trapilo’s continued limited participation are both great signs. The Bears will need Wright against the Vikings’ aggressive, blitz-based defense on Sunday. Trapilo is working his way back from a season-ending patellar tendon rupture and has reportedly been making great progress.

Bears OT Ozzy Trapilo (knee) was limited on Wednesday.

Trapilo is working his way back from a season-ending patellar tendon rupture. Starting Bears RT Darnell Wright (knee) was unable to practice at all today. These injuries are worth watching with a game against the blitz-heavy Vikings coming up this weekend.

CHI Offensive Lineman #75

Ozzy Trapilo (knee) is questionable for Week 1 against the Panthers.

Trapilo went down with a torn patellar tendon against the Packers in the Wild Card round last season. Bears GM Ryan Poles initially said he would be out “deep into next year.” Trapilo has made a remarkable recovery and has a shot to suit up this week. Even if he isn’t quite ready, the Bears should have their starting left tackle back early in the season. Backup quarterback Tyson Bagent (back) is also questionable for Week 1.
Ozzy Trapilo

CHI Offensive Lineman #75

The Athletic’s Dan Wiederer reports that there is “growing optimism” regarding OT Ozzy Trapilo’s (knee) “accelerated timeline.”

Bears OL coach Dan Roushar adds that the team would “rather be a day too late than a day too early” with Trapilo, but it sounds like the young offensive tackle could join his teammates in team drills soon. The team has “confidence he can quickly return to the level he finished last season at.” That would be great news for the offense as a whole. The 2025 second-round pick produced a promising rookie season before rupturing his patellar tendon.

Seahawks ruled out Rashid Shaheed (knee) for Week 8 against the Bears.

Shaheed reportedly avoided a major injury in the collision with teammate Jaxon Smith-Njigba in the end zone in Week 7, an injury that will claim at least one game from the veteran speedster. There’s not really a ton of fantasy value behind Smith-Njigba in Seattle, although veteran Cooper Kupp could see a target or two trickle his way in Shaheed’s absence.

Zach Charbonnet (knee) is expected to be active for Week 8 against the Bears.

The team has yet to activate Charbonnet from injured reserve but removed him from the injury report Saturday, leaving only the procedural step in the way of his season debut. He likely returns to a limited role as the team manages his reps in his first game since tearing his ACL in 2025. Rookie Jadarian price is also expected to play after being removed from the injury report. He, too, will need to be activated from injured reserve.

Seahawks removed Jadarian Price (chest) from the injury report Saturday and he is expected to play in Week 8 against the Bears.

The team has yet to activate him from injured reserve, a procedural move that is expected to come before they take the field in Week 8 against the Bears on Monday Night Football. Zach Charbonnet is also expected to be activated from injured reserve, giving the team their top two backs for the first time this season. No word yet on an expected snap count for either, although Price would seem to be in line to serve as the top option in the backfield considering it will be Charbonnet’s season debut.

Broncos placed RB RJ Harvey (knee) on injured reserve.

Whoa, that escalated quickly. Harvey reportedly suffered a knee injury in practice this week that initially caused the Broncos to rule him out for Week 8, with the team then making the procedural move of placing him on injured reserve Saturday. Harvey will now miss the next four games, at minimum, as he rehabs the injury, leaving rookie Jonah Coleman and veteran J.K. Dobbins to handle primary backfield duties with Tyler Badie also on injured reserve. Coleman warrants weekly FLEX status, at minimum.

Chiefs placed CB L’Jarius Sneed (knee) on inured reserve.

That was somewhat unexpected. Sneed missed Wednesday’s practice for personal reasons and was limited Thursday and Friday. He was moved to injured reserve a day later. The Chiefs are now down their top two corners after Mansoor Delane was ruled out for Week 8, creating a much softer matchup for the Broncos on Sunday.

Colston Loveland (neck) was removed from the injury report Saturday and will play in Week 8 against the Seahawks.

Loveland popped on the injury report Friday after being limited with a neck injury. A full session Saturday cleared his path to play against the Seahawks on Monday Night Football, where he’ll likely be leaned on to move the football against the suffocating Seattle defense.

Tytus Howard (concussion) cleared protocol and will play in Week 8 against the Steelers.

Howard gains clearance just in time to be charged with slowing an aggressive Pittsburgh pass rush, likely in line to handle his fair share of T.J. Watt on Sunday. There should be no reason for Howard to see a decline in snaps or performance after suffering a concussion in Week 7.

Sweat will be sidelined for four games, at minimum, as the Jets struggle to cling to another lost season.
