Bears and Lions Inactives 

The worst situation did not materialize for the Bears on game day and they will have several questionable players active for Sunday's game with the Detroit Lions, including defensive end Yannick Ngakoue.

Ngakoue had been questionable with a knee injury but had been trending up with a full practice on Friday. He will play Sunday and is  not on the inactive list.

Both wide receiver Velus Jones Jr. (illness) and wide receiver Tyler Scott (hamstring) are active for the game as well. Receiver Collin Johnson, promoted from the practice squad on Saturday, will be inactive against the Lions.

Other Bears inactive on Sunday include wide receiver Equanimeous St. Brown (pectoral injury), defensive end Dominique Robinson, guard Ja'Tyrre Carter, safety Quindell Johnson and quarterback Nathan Peterman. 

Cornerback Steven Gilmore, wide receiver Antoine Green, linebacker Charles Harris, cornerback Chase Lucas, linebacker Trevor Nowaske and center Frank Ragnow. Ragnow has three injuries and had been ruled out earlier in the week.
