Cornerback Kyler Gordon defends a pass against the Lions last week.

The Bears will play their season finale without their top draft pick after the team ruled rookie cornerback Kyler Gordon inactive Sunday at Soldier Field.

Gordon turned up on the Bears’ injury report with a groin injury Thursday. Saturday, the Bears said he was also ill. He was ruled questionable because of both maladies.

Defensive lineman Angelo Blackson, who was also questionable because of an illness, won’t play. Other inactives include running back Darrynton Evans and defensive lineman Terrell Lewis.
