Bears center Lucas Patrick will go on injured reserve after hurting his toe Monday night against the Patriots, head coach Matt Eberflus said Wednesday.
That leaves Sam Mustipher, who was benched after six starts, to inherit the job back from the veteran. The Bears will promote center Dieter Eiselen from the practice squad as insurance.
Patrick left the Patriots game toward the end of the first quarter of his first start at center this season. He underwent tests Tuesday.
