Chicago Bears Get BIG Injury News On Tyrique Stevenson, Cole Kmet + Lamar Jackson Update
Happy Victory Monday, Bears fans. We got a Lamar Jackson injury update as the Ravens are the next team on the schedule. Most assumed he’d be back, and he still might, but didn’t practice today. More on him in just a moment. We got some Bears injury news. I think some good news uh when it comes to a couple of key players that left yesterday’s game against the Saints. And are the Bears getting disrespected despite a four-ame winning streak? We’ll dive into all this. My name is Harrison Graham. Let’s start with Lamar, who John Harbaugh declared before the byee that he and Roan Smith would be back for this Bears game. Looks like Roan is going to be more on him in a second, but uh the Ravens who returned to the practice facility today after the bye-week did not have their quarterback on the practice field. He was one of two players who did not practice. Uh Jeff Zerbeic, who’s been covering the Ravens for a long time, uh tweeted out that uh Lamar is still not practicing as he’s dealing with that hamstring injury. Last time when he got injured, by the way, that was 22 days ago. Uh and then Tavius Robinson, who has a broken bone in his foot, is not going to play, uh was not out there either. Jameson Hinsley added this uh after practice when John Harbaugh talked to the media. He declined to say whether Lamar Jackson will practice this week, saying he didn’t want to comment on individual players. and he was asked if he is expected uh for Lamar to play Sunday. He said, quote, same answer. So, is John Harbaugh, you know, playing that whole I’m not going to give anything away game or is he unsure? Because it’s weird to go into the by-week saying, “Yeah, Lamar’s going to be back. We’re going to get some key guys back.” And then you get back, talk to the media for the first time for the new game week, and yeah, I’m not going to answer that question. That it’s a little bit odd to me. Uh so Wednesday will be pretty telling because that’s when the first injury report drops. We’ll obviously see if Lamar does anything at practice. My gut tells me he will play. Uh but uh my gut also tells me that the Ravens kind of just assumed on the bye-week the hamstring would be fully healed and maybe it’s not. Uh and maybe that’s why Harbaugh is a little reluctant uh to give more to the media again. I think we’ll know more on Wednesday obviously. And listen, this would be a huge development because Cooper Rush has been horrific in the two games he’s had to start uh as Lamar’s backup. Tyler Huntley, who always finds his way back on the Ravens, he’s on their practice squad. He’s been elevated the last couple of games and uh they went to him late in that Rams game and he was a little more effective. So, I wouldn’t be shocked if he started if for some reason Lamar can’t play. Uh but either way, even if it’s Huntley who seems to play decent with Baltimore, monumental drop off. I mean, it is just not the same uh at all. You’re talking about an MVP caliber player versus a bad backup right now in Cooper Rush or a guy who’s bounced around practice squads recently in Tyler Huntley. I know Tyler Huntley beat the Bears what, four years ago in that awful 16-13 game. Uh don’t need to revisit that, but uh Tyler Huntley was also playing much better football those days. uh than he has his than he has in recent years. Uh other injury news for the Ravens. Uh all these players were back at practice and are tracking towards playing this week. Rocoan Smith who missed a couple of games there. More on him in a second. Uh Cheeto Bay Auzi, uh Devontes Walker, Ronnie Stanley, that’s big uh the left tackle obviously. And then Patrick Ricard uh the fullback who they obviously use on a lot of those ISO runs with Derrick Henry as a lead blocker. Uh we are getting the Rocoan revenge game. He is motivated to play this game. He was asked today if he’s playing. He said yes. Uh I think uh I don’t know if a torn ACL would would keep him off the field this week. This is his first game back uh against the Bears after Ryan Ples traded him amid contract disputes in his first year as the GM. And that was controversial at the time. It hasn’t aged that well as Rocoan has been very good for the Ravens. Now, I will say right here, right now, the Bears are actually getting terrific linebacker play, but I would say for the last couple of years, while TJ Edwards has obviously been pretty good, TMA Edmonds has clearly been overpaid, uh, we’ve always wondered, should they have just kept Roan, like would that have would that have made more sense overall? And I’ll just ask you guys, do you miss Rocoan Smith? Type Y for S type in for no. I do, but I also understood to an extent the logic at the time. I mean, I still would have paid him. uh you’re talking about to me other than Fred Warner, he’s been the best offball linebacker over the last five or six years from a consistency standpoint in the NFL. But I will say at this exact moment, TJ and Tmaine are playing really well together. So that’ll be an interesting dynamic on Sunday uh with Roan uh going up against the Bears for the first time since the trade. Uh okay guys, Brunt, the best working boots in the game come from Bunt Brunt. They’re the best I’ve ever used. Believe me on that. Choosing work boots used to mean sacrificing comfort or durability. If they felt good, they didn’t last. And if they lasted, they wrecked your feet. I’ve tried a bunch of them over the years. Brunt thought that was BS. So, they built tough boots that feel great from day one. As a homeowner, there’s always projects around the house to work on, and Brunt’s boots are no doubt the most comfortable work boots I’ve ever worn. And they felt comfortable right out of the box, which I appreciate. Normal shoes don’t always feel comfortable out of the box, but Brunt’s boots do. Uh, but they’re not just comfortable. They’re built to perform. Whether you need waterproof, safety toe, soft toe, pull on, or lace up, they’ve got options that can handle whatever job site you’re walking into. Uh, before I found Brun, I can’t tell you how many different working boots I tried and went through. I always was left with either foot pain, blisters, or even if they were comfortable, they just didn’t last very long. They weren’t waterproof. Whatever the case was, uh, just didn’t last as long as I needed them to. And right now, for a limited time only, we have an awesome deal for you guys. is you can get $10 off at Brunt when you use our code chat at checkout. Go to bruntworkware.com. Use code chat, you’re good to go. Brunt was tired of the workware brands out there cutting corners. You work way too hard to be stuck in uncomfortable boots that don’t hold up. So, they built something better. Boots that are insanely comfortable and built for any job site. For a limited time, our listeners, like I said, get $10 off with Brunt with code chat. Ch. Go to bruntworkware.com. Use code chat. You’re good to go. after you order, tell them we sent you Bears now by Chat Sports, and we would greatly appreciate that. Code and link to Brunt are in the comments and description of this video. Okay, let’s get to some Bears injury updates here. We’ve been waiting all day. What’s going on with Tyreek Stevenson? What’s going on with Cole KT? Uh, two key starters that left uh the Bears Saints game with various injuries. For Tyreek, it’s a shoulder and for Cole Kat, it’s a back injury. Ben Johnson said today that the early belief is that both these guys are in the day-to-day realm, not the week-toeek realm, which means both should have a chance to play on Sunday. He also said we’ll know more Wednesday, so there might be some more testing that has to take place, but uh I would say on the surface really good news because if they if it was long-term, I think they would have a better idea about it. This would be a huge break if neither of these guys miss time. Even if it’s like a game for one or both these guys, that’s still uh a huge break, especially for Tyreek Stevenson, man. Like you’re thin at corner. This guy has stepped up in a major way. Uh with Jaylen Johnson going down, he’s played at times like a true CB1 and for sure uh like a quality starter this year, especially since week two. So proud of him for that. And the Bears need him out there. Uh obviously uh for Cole KT not a ton of production from a receiving tight end standpoint but he and Coloulston Lovelin while they would love to get more action in the passing game uh they’ve both been blocking their ass off. So obviously you want KT out there too. I said it earlier today if he’s able to go he’s going to go. He’s never missed a game in his career. He’s tough as hell. So um you know unless there was a fracture in the back I would have expected him to play. So, if he truly is in that day-to-day realm, may not practice much, but I guess I’m guessing he suits up on Sunday. Uh, some other injuries to watch. Obviously, Grady Jarrett sounds like he could have gone this week, but with the wet conditions at Soldier Field, they opted to hold him out being an older player. Uh, probably a good decision. Uh, should be back uh this upcoming Sunday. Obviously, Kairo Santos, what’s going on with this kicker situation through one game? I thought it was a bit early to declare a potential kicker controversy. I don’t know if we’re there yet, but I’ll say what I said last week. If Cairo is not 100% with him having a weak leg and a right thigh injury, I’m not kicking him. So, I would expect Jake Moody for another week if that’s the case. They have one more practice squad elevation they can use for him and then, you know, maybe make a decision after that. Uh Austin Booker, Aean Agbog, Bamiga still on short-term IR. Both their practice windows have been open for Booker. They got to make a decision this week. If they don’t activate him, he is out for the season. uh because you have 21 days and it was open two weeks ago. So, it’s now or never for the Bears with Booker. Uh Ben was asked, you know, was there a setback and he said, “No, uh we felt comfortable with the rotation uh that we were heading into these last two game days with.” But he then also added today, quote, “I think he’s going to be able to help us.” So, barring something unforeseen, I think they’re going to activate him. Uh I think part of that might just be Dominique Robinson’s kind of turned a corner as a player. Like, he’s he’s actually done some nice things. So, uh, I still would activate him. This pass rush is not productive enough to just call it a season for Austin Booker. I don’t know what he’ll give them, but I think you got to get him onto the 53 and find out. Agog Miga, I don’t think it’s as urgent. Uh, other than Noah Sul, you’re pretty healthy at linebacker. I thought special teams were much better this week and that’s his primary role. So, uh, I don’t think that one is quite as urgent. Uh, I mean, Hippoly’s been a healthy scratch the last two weeks, so I don’t think Aean O is like a must activate, but when they opened his practice window, you figure that’s going to happen at some point. And I would guess either Carl Jones uh or DeMarco Jackson uh to be um the player that would get cut in that instance. Okay, enough injury stuff. Are the Bears getting disrespected? Look, I fully expected Chicago to be an underdog this week. Bears or Ravens are coming off a by-week. Vegas still really likes them. I mean, they’re not even like they still could win the AFC North a based on that division and Vegas still thinks it’s pretty close between them and Pittsburgh. Pittsburgh losing that game to Cincinnati on Thursday night last week. Kind of reopen the door for Baltimore despite being one and five. Uh Lamar is expected to come back. Um we’ll see if that ends up being the case obviously. So, I understand the Bears being a dog. It’s not like the Bears are some established proven contender or something like that. 6 and a half is a little rich though. I mean the Ravens have key guys that are not returning like Justin Matab Namdi Madabique for example. Um you know so I don’t think this is like some obvious like the Bears have no shot spot. I mean almost a touchdown in the NFL that that’s a large number. So I already thought for you you know gamble responsibly obviously plus six and a half. I think that’s good value with Lamar. If Lamar doesn’t play, I mean, it’s almost worth an earlier uh week sprinkle just in case he doesn’t play. A little moneyline play because uh if he’s out, then I I mean, to me, that’s like a pick them if not a slight favor for the Bears based on how Cooper Rush has played and even Tyler Huntley. So, um look, I get it. I expected to be a dog. I thought they’d be like three and a half, four-point dog to open up. Six and a half though, like I get the Bears aren’t playing perfect football, but they’ve won four games in a row. It’s the longest win streak in the NFC. and the Ravens are one and five. Regardless of how that is the case, a touchdown is a lot. So, we’ll see if that changes throughout the week. This is an empty the tank game for Baltimore. They have to win it to keep their season alive. I get all of the angles. I just think a touchdown’s a little high. Uh but Vegas has not loved uh the Bears so far this year. So, betting on the Bears recently has been a good play. That line last week against New Orleans came down to three and a half. They won by 12. They were a healthy underdog against Washington. Beat them outright. So, um, you know, maybe the Bears just embrace this underdog mentality going to Baltimore and find a way to get a fifth straight win. So, we’ll see what happens. Uh, I think this is a tough spot for the Bears if Lamar plays. Ravens coming off the buy, like I mentioned, empty the tank spot for them. But, hey, Bears are vibing right now. Uh, I’d be crazy to say they don’t have a chance. And when Vegas gives a team a touchdown head start, that’s usually an indicator that they don’t think the Bears have much of an opportunity here. All right, predict the score. Bears, Ravens, who wins, what is the final score going to be? I won’t have my first prediction until we do our preview episode, so you’ll have to wait for mine. Uh, but you guys let me know who wins and what is the score going to be. All right, plenty of news there. Uh, good to see the Tyreek Stevenson Cole Commat early updates. Again, we’ll know more on Wednesday, but uh, I think that’s trending in the right direction, so that’s positive news. Uh, we’ll continue to monitor that situation and bring you content on a daily basis. So, subscribe and bear down.

First viewer. That's crazy lol. Been watchin for years now and thats never happened. Keep it up HG & company. Bear Down!
No – i dont miss Roquan.
2:27 Who shrunk Tyler Huntley’s head? He looks like Beetlejuice.
No. Don't miss him.
Lamar Jackson doesn't need to practice!!
I don't think Roquan wanted to stay.
Nah, don't miss Roquon because it has been three years. Over it already.
Roquan is an All Pro LB. His contract was slightly more than what we paid Edmunds.
If you say you don't miss him, I question if you understand football. He is elite. Another horrible move by Poles.
Kmet is the player who won't be missed. He is a good blocker.
If Caleb plays well, we kick their ass. 31-17 Bears
Who in here misses Fields still? Exactly. Move on. BTFD!!
Bears are being disrespected, the defense is getting turnovers at an unsustainable rate and even with extra drives the offense isn't scoring at a great rate. There are a lot of things to improve but a lot of improvements are already being made. But they need to improve more and have the offense be more predictable on results for me to think anyone is disrespecting them anymore
Yes, roquan and TJ would've been fire
What do yall think is the smart move from the ravens perspective? Lamar plays to try and take a needed W OR Let him rest another and try to get as healthy as possible
Yes
N
Yes
Y
Bears are a good team, not a playoff team. No disrespect, but a healthy Ravens team would win over the Bears. I am happy we are 4 & 2, but be realistic. 😮
I said it in 2019 and ill say it again, roquan is a future hof. He was the one move that i instantly felt bad about. Hope he plays well even if hes playing the bears.😊
Y
Austin Booker is more talented/has a much higher ceiling than Dom Rob. It would be a huge mistake if they don't activate him and he can't play the rest of the year.
I definitely think we should of kept Roquan. He was out draft pick and he was a beast and looked great in #58! Trumain is a good player but lacks big play potential. For now, he'll work.
N
I feel like when we play good teams we are sifting through the injury report to give us more confidence to get a win and that is scary!
Y
I didn’t care for Roquan’s remarks about the Bears after he left. He had a chance to be classy and wasn’t. So F him. I hope we put 200 yards rushing on him.
NO
bears 30 Baltimore 7
We might need Roquan back to make playoffs
BEARS 27 – RAVENS 16
Vegas wants the Ravens to win so expect lots of bad calls against the bears in critical downs
No 🤔
I cant wait to see roquan play!
If Lamar is back and healthy I could see them coming back hard and they would cover 6.5. If Lamar isn’t back, the Bears are winning
No, we couldnt pay big money to an offball LB for a rebuild. I think a deal might have gotten done, but the stories you hear about how he badmouthed the team and what he's said publicly since the trade tracks with those stories. Ive heard he's a bad locker room guy. He's not Urlacher
Y
Y
Let's predict the same numbers as the last two close ones – Bears win 25-24.
Y, shoulda kept Roquan
