Chicago Bears RB D'Andre Swift (groin) was limited in practice on Saturday, Dec. 14, after not taking part the two days prior and is questionable for Week 15.
| Footballguys view: Swift missed two days of practice before getting limited work in on Saturday. The Bears are already down Roschon Johnson (concussion), so Swift will have a heavy workload if he's able to play on Monday against the Vikings.

We'll be watching the Bears personnel moves to get a handle on what direction this situation is headed. |

Link to story Bears | Rome Odunze The Lone Bright Spot In Bears Loss Sun Dec 8, 09:19 PM
Bears rookie WR Rome Odunze caught four of five targets for 42 yards and two touchdowns in Sunday's 38-13 loss to the 49ers.
| Footballguys view: Odunze was the lone bright spot in the Bears' seventh straight loss, with both his scores coming in garbage time during a blowout loss. How bad was Chicago's offense? The Bears' 4 total yards in the first half were the fewest in any first half by any team since at least the 2000 season. It's also fair to wonder how many of his managers rolled him out as a starter after a three-game stretch saw him rank as WR50 while teammates DJ Moore and Keenan Allen both produced at top-10 levels in that same span. Whatever the case, the Bears have plenty to work on after this one. Chicago plays Minnesota on Monday night in Week 15. |

He told reporters that he "plays through everything" so Moore should be out there in Week 14 against the 49ers. We have him as a low-end WR2 or flex play for Sunday afternoon's game. |
