Bears look pretty banged up, still. Good to see Bates is back to full participation though. It sounds like Marcedes Lewis is just getting extra rest as a DNP listing there. He's 40 years old and will probably get this extra rest all season long... but he doesn't need the practice to deliver well on game day. He knows what to do and will deliver.
Sweat is dinged up too. The DL wasn't looking that good even if they were all healthy. Now 4 of the DL are hurt (and one out) - and Martin is on IR - to begin the season
And that has to kill the rotation too. Guys could end up getting tired and gassed in this one.

IIRC they have to list someone as questionable if there is ANY chance of them not playing (I can't remember the weekly deadline - but it is for the gamblers). I wouldn't take it too seriously at this point, and expect most of those guys will play & show no sign of injury.
