Chicago Bears place Teven Jenkins on injured reserve

During Wednesday's press conference at Halas Hall, Chicago Bears general manager Ryan Poles said that starting left guard Teven Jenkins would be placed on injured reserve. Since he was placed on IR after the team set their 53-man roster, that means Jenkins can be designated to return to the team after four games.

Earlier this week, head coach Matt Eberflius said that Jenkins was the only player they considered "week to week" and that all the other injured players should be good to go for the season opener against the Green Bay Packers on September 10.
