Most teams would prefer their bye week to be a little later into the season, but for the Chicago Bears, theirs happened at about the perfect time. Fresh off an upset loss to the suddenly pesky Raiders in London, Chicago needed some time to regroup and get healthy.
Mitchell Trubisky is back practicing but is still unsure if he will play along with Taylor Gabriel who had a huge first half against the Redskins before suffering a concussion. The Chicago Bears will be without Akiem Hicks, though, who suffered an elbow injury early in the game against the Raiders.
