Bears center Lucas Patrick played only 35 snaps against the Lions on Sunday after suffering a back injury. Patrick initially was injured in the first quarter when he was blindsided by a Lions player while chasing safety Tracy Walker, who had recovered what he thought was a fumble by Cole Kmet, who had been ruled down on a three-yard reception.
