Gordon is active for Saturday's wild-card round game against the Packers.

EDGE Analysis

Gordon was able to play in only three regular-season games due to a groin injury. He was activated from injured reserve earlier in the day and will now be active for the first time since Week 13. Gordon should immediately start at an outside corner position.

The Bears activated Gordon (groin) off injured reserve Saturday.

EDGE Analysis

Gordon has been sidelined since Week 13 due to a groin injury but should have a chance to make his return during Saturday's wild-card matchup versus the Packers. While he's still listed as questionable, the 26-year-old should resume his role as one of the team's starting cornerbacks alongside Jaylon Johnson if he suits up against Green Bay.

Gordon (groin) is listed as questionable for Saturday's wild-card round game against the Packers.

EDGE Analysis

Gordon practiced without limitations Friday, suggesting he has a decent chance to return Saturday, though he would first have to be added back to the active roster from injured reserve. He was limited to three appearances in the regular season, having suited up in Weeks 6, 7 and 13. Gordon played at least 60 percent of Chicago's defensive snaps in all three of those games.

Gordon (groin) was a limited participant in Wednesday's practice.

EDGE Analysis

Gordon remains on injured reserve, but the ability to log a practice in any capacity is a good sign for the cornerback's chances to suit up for Saturday's wild-card matchup with the Packers. The 26-year-old's season was derailed by injuries, and he only participated in three games this season, logging 117 defensive snaps for seven tackles (two solo). The healthy return of Gordon could bolster the Bears' secondary as they head into a tough elimination game against a familiar opponent.

Gordon (groin) was designated to return from the injured reserve list Tuesday.

EDGE Analysis

The 26-year-old from Washington appeared in just three regular-season games this season due to hamstring and groin injuries, but it now appears he's nearing a return. If activated to Chicago's active roster, Gordon could suit up for the Bears' wild-card matchup against the Packers on Saturday. His practice participation throughout the week will likely provide the best indication of his potential availability for this weekend.

Head coach Ben Johnson said Monday that "the hope" is to open the 21-day practice window for Gordon (groin) this week, Jason Lieser of the Chicago Sun-Times reports.

EDGE Analysis

Gordon has missed the minimum four games required while on injured reserve, which makes him eligible to be activated from IR ahead of Saturday's NFC wild-card game against the Packers. The 2022 second-rounder appears to be in the final stage of his recovery from a groin injury, but he would need to be activated from IR in order to play for the Bears in the postseason.

The Bears placed Gordon (groin) on injured reserve Saturday.

EDGE Analysis

Gordon previously spent time on IR with a calf injury that left him sidelined until the Week 13 win over Philadelphia. The 2022 second-round pick then missed last week's loss to the Packers after he sustained a groin injury during pre-game warmups, and he had already been ruled out for this Sunday's contest versus the Browns. Gordon will now shift back to IR for the remainder of the regular season, though he'll be eligible to return to the active roster if the 9-4 Bears qualify for the playoffs.

Gordon (groin) has been ruled out ahead of Sunday's matchup against the Browns.

EDGE Analysis

Gordon didn't practice all week and is now in line to miss his second consecutive game due to a groin injury. The Washington product has appeared in just three contests this season, recording seven total tackles, including 1.0 sacks. While he remains out Sunday, Jaylon Johnson and Nahshon Wright are likely to operate as Chicago's top boundary corners.

Gordon (groin) did not practice Wednesday, Dan Wiederer of the Chicago Tribune reports.

EDGE Analysis

Gordon has missed six of the Bears' last seven games due to a groin injury. He'll likely be sidelined for Sunday's game against the Browns unless he's cleared to practice in at least a limited capacity over the next two days. Jaylon Johnson will continue to see additional snaps at outside linebacker for as long as Gordon is sidelined.

Gordon suffered a groin injury in warmups and has been ruled out for Sunday's contest against the Packers, Adam Jahns of AllCHGO.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

Gordon made his return to action in Week 13 after missing five contests with a groin injury, and he has now potentially aggravated the previous issue. In his absence, Nahshon Wright and Jaylon Jones will stand to operate in more significant roles in Chicago's secondary.
