Lions first-round pick Nick Fairley (foot) made his NFL debut on Monday Night Football in Week 5, playing a handful of snaps on passing downs without registering a sack or tackle.
“I think I did OK,” Fairley said. “There’s always room for improvement.” While he didn’t show up in the box score, Fairley did find his way into the Bears’ backfield a few times. At full-health, he will back up Corey Williams and Ndamukong Suh as a situational pass rusher.
