The Chicago Bears released Wednesday’s injury report, just days before the Bears welcome the Green Bay Packers to Soldier Field for their Saturday night clash.

And it isn’t great.

The Bears’ offense is hobbling into this game, with multiple key starters listed as DNPs or limited.

Wide receivers Rome Odunze (foot) and Luther Burden III (ankle) didn’t practice, and running back D’Andre Swift (groin ) was limited.

The only good news (if you can call it that) is that linebacker Tremaine Edmunds was at least a limited participant as he works his way back from injured reserve.

Burden’s injury is especially concerning. The rookie second-round pick has been trending up since filling in for Odunze over the last two weeks. He enters Week 16 with 36 catches for 479 yards and one touchdown, and an analytics bio that suggests he’s having one of the best rookie seasons in a long time.

Swift has been on and off the injury report over the last few weeks, and if history is any indicator, he should be good to go on Saturday.

We’ll continue to monitor the Chicago Bears injury report over the next few days.
