The Bears are preparing to move Jack Sanborn from strong-side linebacker to middle linebacker Sunday against the Saints with Tremaine Edmunds out with a knee injury. The Bears’ most expensive free agent addition of the offseason missed practice for the second-straight day Thursday.
Edmunds hurt his right knee when it was hit by teammate Gervon Dexter’s helmet at the end of a play in the third quarter. In the initial few seconds after the play, the Bears feared the injury could be season-ending.
