Guard Teven Jemkins blocks in presason play last year.Teven Jenkins has a leg injury, a source confirmed, adding a complication to a Bears offensive line that has seen both starting guards, their center and their chief backup hurt at different points in training camp. It’s unclear if Jenkins can recover in time for the Bears’ season opener against the Packers in 20 days.
Jenkins practiced Thursday in suburban Indianapolis but wasn’t spotted on the sideline during Saturday’s game. The Bears sat their starters against the Colts.
After Thursday’s practice, the left guard said that he’d been taking steps to become more durable.
