Booker recorded three tackles in the Bears' 19-16 loss to the Lions on Sunday.

EDGE Analysis

Booker finished with 35 tackles, including 4.5 sacks, and a forced fumble across 10 games after missing the first eight contests with a knee injury. He routinely played over 80 percent of the snaps and took a major step forward after recording just 1.5 sacks as a rookie in 2024. He is under contract through 2027 and profiles as a rising IDP asset if his health holds.

Booker recorded three tackles, including one solo and 1.0 sacks in the Bears' 42-38 loss to the 49ers on Sunday.

EDGE Analysis

Booker now has 3.5 of his 4.5 sacks over his last three contests, accounting for the majority of his big-play production this season. He has posted between two and four tackles in all but two games, underscoring his reliance on sacks for fantasy value. That profile makes him a low-floor, sack-dependent IDP option.

EDGE Analysis

Booker now has 2.5 of his 3.5 sacks over his last two contests, accounting for nearly all of his big-play production this season. He has posted between two and four tackles in all but two games, underscoring his reliance on sacks for fantasy value. That profile makes him a low-floor, sack-dependent IDP option.

EDGE Analysis

Booker now has 3.0 sacks in eight games, though the two Sunday were his first since his first action of the season in Week 9. With limited tackle volume most weeks, he profiles as a low-floor IDP who provides value primarily when he reaches the sack column.

The Bears activated Booker (knee) from injured reserve Tuesday.

EDGE Analysis

Booker practiced in full all of Week 8 but wasn't cleared to return in time for Chicago's loss to the Ravens.

Booker (knee) participated in practice fully Wednesday.

EDGE Analysis

Booker is still on injured reserve, though he was designated to return Oct. 7. He has until Oct. 28 to be activated or else be forced to miss the remainder of the season. Booker was able to log a trio of full practices last week, so he seems to be closing in on a return.

Booker (knee) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Saints.

EDGE Analysis

Booker was a full participant in practice all week, but he has not progressed enough in his recovery from a knee injury to be activated from injured reserve. He opened the season on IR, so his next opportunity to make his 2025 regular-season debut is Week 8 against the Ravens on Sunday, Oct. 26.

Booker (knee) has been downgraded to out for Monday night's game versus Washington.

EDGE Analysis

Booker remains on injured reserve and wasn't activated ahead of the Bears' Week 6 date with the Commanders. He was designated for return Tuesday, which opened his 21-day practice window. Booker's next chance to suit up will be Sunday against the Saints.

Booker (knee) was a full participant in Saturday's practice and is listed as questionable for Monday's game against the Commanders.

EDGE Analysis

Booker started the regular season on injured reserve due to a knee injury that he suffered during preseason action in August. He was designated to return Thursday and was a full participant in all three practices this past week, but he will need to be activated from IR before making his 2025 regular-season debut. The 2024 fifth-rounder tallied 21 tackles (14 solo), including 1.5 sacks, across 17 regular-season games during his rookie campaign.
