Bears Lose OT Braxton Jones for the Year
The Chicago Bears received some unfortunate news on Wednesday, as offensive tackle Braxton Jones will miss the remainder of the 2026 NFL season. Jones underwent surgery on his right knee, officially ending any hopes of a return this season.
Jones originally suffered the injury during Chicago’s Week 3 victory over the Philadelphia Eagles, exiting the game in the third quarter. The Bears subsequently placed him on injured reserve on October 3, initially leaving the door open for a return after the mandatory four-game absence.
Unfortunately, that return will no longer happen.
