Bears' T.J. Edwards Taken Off on Cart Amidst Packers' Surging 14-3 Lead—What This Means for Chicago's Defense

Right in the thick of the action at Soldier Field, Bears linebacker T.J. Edwards suddenly faltered with just over eleven minutes ticking off before halftime—a tough break that saw medical staff swiftly strap his left leg into a vacuum splint before whisking him away for X-rays. Now, it wasn’t one of those bone-crunching hits; no, this was a nasty non-contact injury as he tried to pivot sharply, his leg giving way on Jordan Love’s incomplete pass. Yikes. As Edwards’ night abruptly ended, D’Marco Jackson slid in to fill the void, with the Bears already sidelined by the absence of Noah Sewell and Amen Ogbongbemiga. Talk about a tough spot. Edwards, already hobbled through the season by hand and hamstring issues, is now listed as doubtful to return due to an ankle injury. Meanwhile, the Packers kept the pressure on, Love connecting twice for touchdowns as Green Bay surged to a 14-3 lead. It’s a precarious situation for the Bears, one that could tilt the momentum further in Green Bay’s favor. LEARN MORE
