Bears DT Hicks, QB Foles both inactive for Packers game

GREEN BAY, Wis. (AP) -- Chicago Bears defensive tackle Akiem Hicks has a hamstring injury that will prevent him from playing Sunday night against the NFC North-leading Green Bay Packers.

Hicks, who will miss his first game of the season, had been listed as questionable. He has 3+ sacks and a team-high 14 quarterback hurries this season.

Bears quarterback Nick Foles also is inactive due to a glute and hip injury that had kept him from practicing all week. Bears coach Matt Nagy announced Friday that Mitchell Trubisky would start in Foles' place at Green Bay.

Foles got hurt in the Bears' last game, a 19-13 loss to the Minnesota Vikings on Nov.
