Meredith (ankle) is listed as active Monday in San Diego.
EDGE Analysis
Meredith is on the periphery of the passing attack in Chicago, but the absence of Eddie Royal (knee) could result in his first snaps since Week 6. On the season, Meredith has managed eight catches (on 11 targets) for 95 yards in five appearances.

Meredith (ankle) is listed as probable for Monday's matchup with San Diego, Jeremy Stoltz of Scout.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
Meredith was hampered by an ankle issue throughout the week, but it appears as though his status was never in too much jeopardy. Barring a setback, he'll be available Monday after sitting out Week 8 versus the Vikings.

Meredith caught his lone target for a seven-yard reception in Sunday's win over the Lions.
EDGE Analysis
With both Eddie Royal and Alshon Jeffery returning from injury Sunday, Meredith fell from third to fifth on the depth chart at receiver, and unsurprisingly saw his offensive snaps decline. The undrafted rookie has impressed the Bears since training camp, but unless another injury or two hits the team's receiver ranks, there's not much hope of him gaining a major offensive role.

Meredith hauled in all four of his targets for 52 yards in Sunday's 18-17 win over the Chiefs.
EDGE Analysis
As a result of injuries to the Bears' top two wideouts (Alshon Jeffery and Eddie Royal), Meredith moved up to third on the team's depth chart Sunday, finishing the afternoon second on the team in receiving yardage. Though the undrafted rookie lacks in pedigree, at 6-foot-3 and with speed to burn, Meredith makes for an interesting developmental player for the Bears. However, any opportunities he earns in the passing game over the balance of the season will likely be tied to the health of the team's more established wideouts week in and week out.

Meredith caught three of his four targets and gained 36 yards in Sunday's 48-23 loss to the Cardinals.
EDGE Analysis
After he was inactive in the Week 1 loss to the Packers, Meredith made his NFL debut Sunday while Alshon Jeffery (hamstring) was sidelined. Though Meredith wasn't expected to serve in much more than a special teams capacity, the undrafted rookie surprisingly finished fourth on the team in targets. Meredith will likely head back to the inactive list this week against the Seahawks if Jeffery is healthy enough to suit up, but his performance in Week 2 may make the Bears reluctant to expose him to waivers if injuries compromise the team's depth at other positions later in the year.

Meredith won a roster spot with the Bears after final cuts were announced Saturday, the Chicago Tribune reports.
EDGE Analysis
The undrafted rookie entered training camp as one of the biggest long shots to crack the roster, but injuries to Kevin White (shin), Alshon Jeffery (calf), Eddie Royal (hip), and Marquess Wilson (hamstring) allowed Meredith to stick around longer than expected. He impressed the coaching staff with his good size and hands and willingness to block, but he could be at risk of being cut once some of those other receivers regain full health.
