The Chicago Bears are gearing up for their Week 1 opener against the Minnesota Vikings on Monday Night Football, which will usher in the Ben Johnson era.
While the Bears have yet to play a single regular-season game, there are still some notable injuries heading into their opener, including starters Jaylon Johnson and T.J. Edwards. It’s still early in the week, but it appears to be trending well for Johnson’s return, after he missed the entire summer with a groin injury suffered before training camp. But Edwards is a little more concerning ahead of Monday night’s game.
