Patrick (calf) was placed on the Bears' injured reserve list Saturday, Larry Mayer of the team's official site reports.
EDGE Analysis
Patrick has been playing through a back injury since Nov. 19, but he popped up on the Bears' injury report Friday with a calf injury. He will now miss Chicago's regular-season finale against the Packers. In Patrick's absence, Dan Feeney is set to take over at center.

Patrick (back) is active ahead of Sunday's game against the Falcons.
EDGE Analysis
The 30-year-old offensive lineman was able to log back-to-back limited sessions to end Chicago's week of practice, and it now seems as if he'll be able to play through his back issue in Week 17. Patrick is expected to assume his normal duties as the Bears' starting center Sunday.

Patrick (back) was a full participant in Friday's practice.
EDGE Analysis
The veteran offensive lineman was able to log a full practice session Friday after recording a DNP on Thursday, and it now seems as if he's moved past his back issue. Patrick has made 18 appearances for Chicago since signing with the team back in 2022, starting 15 of those games.

Patrick (back) is available for Sunday's game against the Chargers.

Patrick was added to the Bears' injury report with a back issue and is questionable for Sunday's contest against the Chargers, Dan Wiederer of the Chicago Tribune reports.
EDGE Analysis
With Patrick now on the injury report, the Bears may have to shuffle their offensive line more than they already have. Cody Whitehair -- who is the usual starting center -- has shifted to right guard with Nate Davis (ankle) ruled out for Week 8. If Patrick is unable to play, Doug Kramer would fill in at the starting center position.

Patrick (concussion) is active for Sunday's matchup against the Vikings.
EDGE Analysis
Patrick left the Bears' Week 5 win over Washington early due to a concussion. He was listed as questionable versus Minnesota after clearing protocols and returning to practice Friday. He'll presumably handle his usual duties as Chicago's starting center in Week 6.

Patrick (toe) has been practicing during OTAs, Gene Chamberlain of SI.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
Patrick signed a two-year deal with Chicago last offseason but ended the 2022 campaign on injured reserve after undergoing surgery in November. The veteran offensive lineman should be good to go for the start of 2023 and will likely serve as the backup center behind Cody Whitehair.

Patrick (toe) has been ruled out for the remainder of the 2022 campaign after undergoing surgery, Brad Biggs of the Chicago Tribune reports.
EDGE Analysis
Patrick was placed on IR at the end of October due to a toe injury, but it doesn't appear like he made much progress and elected to undergo surgery that'll sideline him for the remainder of the season. Sam Mustipher has operated as the team's starting center in Patrick's absence.
