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

EDGE Analysis

Jones was practiced in full ahead of Saturday's 31-27 wild-card win over the Packers, but he wasn't activated in time to suit up for that contest. With top left tackle Ozzy Trapilo (knee) having suffered a season-ending injury versus Green Bay, however, Jones now joins Theo Benedet as a candidate to start at LT during Sunday's divisional-round matchup against the Rams.

Jones (knee) was not activated from injured reserve ahead of Saturday's wild-card round game against the Packers, Scott Bair of Marquee Sports Network reports.

EDGE Analysis

Jones logged two full practices to close the week but still isn't able to retake the field. Ozzy Trapilo has taken over as the starter at left tackle, but Jones' continued absence will hurt Chicago's depth.

Jones (knee), who remains on IR, practiced in full Thursday and is officially listed as questionable for Saturday's wild-card round matchup against the Packers.

EDGE Analysis

Jones appears on track to retake the field Saturday and provide depth at offensive tackle, but the Bears will first need to submit a transaction activating him from IR to the 53-man roster. Meanwhile, starting left tackle Ozzy Trapilo upgraded to full practice reps Thursday and does not carry an injury designation for Saturday's game.

Jones (knee), who officially remains on IR, was a full participant in Wednesday's session.

EDGE Analysis

Chicago returned to practice Wednesday after holding a walkthrough session Tuesday, and Jones was listed as a full participant on both reports. He appears on track to come off IR and return to the 53-man roster in time for Saturday's wild-card round matchup against the Packers.

Jones (knee) was designated to return from the injured reserve list Tuesday.

EDGE Analysis

Jones has been sidelined for the Bears' last 11 games due to a knee injury sustained in the Week 7 win over the Saints, but he could return for the team's playoff run. If he's added to Chicago's active roster in time for Saturday's wild-card round matchup against the Packers, Jones would likely operate as one of the Bears' top reserve tackles.

Jones (knee) was placed on the injured reserve list Saturday.

EDGE Analysis

Jones didn't practice both Thursday and Friday due to a knee injury, and he'll now be forced to miss at least Chicago's next four contests after his placement on IR. While he's sidelined, expect Ozzy Trapilo to serve as the Bears' top reserve offensive tackle.

Jones (knee) has been ruled out ahead of Sunday's matchup against the Ravens.

EDGE Analysis

Jones downgraded from a limited session Wednesday to DNPs on Thursday and Friday, so it's no surprise he'll be sidelined for the Week 8 contest. Expect Ozzy Trapilo to operate as the Bears' top reserve tackle in Jones' stead.

Head coach Ben Johnson told reporters Tuesday that Jones will start at left tackle for the Bears' Week 1 clash against the Vikings on Monday, Courtney Cronin of ESPN.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

Jones started in 12 games in 2024 but missed the final two contests of the regular season due to a left ankle fracture. He was cleared to practice at the start of training camp and beat out Kiran Amegadjie, Theo Benedet and rookie second-rounder Ozzy Trapilo for the starting job at left tackle. Jones and guard Joe Thuney will be responsible for protecting the left side of the offensive line for the start of the 2025 campaign.

Jones (ankle) has been practicing during training camp and took first-team reps at left tackle Tuesday, per Bear Report.

EDGE Analysis

Jones ended last season on IR due to a left ankle fracture that required surgery. The 2022 fifth-round draft selection has had enough time to recover and is competing for the starting role at left tackle. Chicago selected another LT, Ozzy Trapilo, in the second round of April's NFL Draft, but Jones seems to have the leg up to start given that he's getting most of the work with the starters during camp. Kiran Amegadjie, who started one game at tackle last year, has also gotten some reps with the first team early in the preseason.

The Bears placed Jones (ankle) on injured reserve Monday, Scott Bair of Marquee Sports Network reports.

EDGE Analysis

As expected, Jones will finish the 2024 regular season on injured reserve. He will undergo surgery to repair a left ankle fracture that he suffered in the Bears' 34-17 loss to the Lions on Sunday. The expectation is that Jones should be able to fully recover by the start of training camp for the 2025 campaign.
