LAKE FOREST, Ill. \u2014 Bears receiver Rome Odunze practiced for the first time in forever on Friday. He has missed weeks of work, last practicing in the lead-up<\/a> to a Week 15 clash with the Cleveland Browns. He aggravated the stress fracture in his foot during pregame warmups and hasn\u2019t been active on the field since.<\/p>\n

He hasn\u2019t played since Week 13<\/a>, when the Bears beat the Philadelphia Eagles. Last year\u2019s No. 9 overall NFL draft pick has been missed. There\u2019s a possibility he could return soon.<\/p>\n

That was made possible on the Bears injury report, where he was designated as questionable for Sunday\u2019s game against the Detroit Lions at Solider Field. They\u2019re still battling for the NFC\u2019s No. 2 seed, when can be clinched with a win or an Eagles loss. While it seems unlikely, there\u2019s at least a possibility that Odunze could play.<\/p>\n

Defensive end Joe Tryon-Shoyinka ruled out with a concussion. Right guard Jonah Jackson missed time with an illness that has swept through the Bears locker room, but he was back at practice on Friday and will play. There\u2019s some uncertainty surrounding defensive backs Jaquan Brisker and Nick McCloud, who are questionable with an illness.<\/p>\n

Left tackle Ozzy Trapilo has been limited this week with knee and quadriceps issues and is also questionable. Theo Benedet would start at left tackle if Trapilo can\u2019t go.<\/p>\n
