Yahoo Sports Bears Week 15 injury report: DJ Moore, Jaquan Brisker questionable vs. Browns
The Chicago Bears (5-8) released their final injury report ahead of Sunday’s Week 15 game against the Cleveland Browns (8-5).
Following the final practice of the week, there’s encouraging news about the statuses of two key starters on offense and defense.
Wide receiver DJ Moore has been nursing an ankle injury this week, which sidelined him Wednesday. But Moore was a full participant in practice Friday and listed as questionable for Sunday.
Safety Jaquan Brisker is battling a groin injury that held him out of Thursday’s practice. But he returned to practice in limited fashion on Friday and has deemed questionable against the Browns.
Elsewhere, wide receiver Equanimeous St. Brown (pectoral) and linebacker Noah Sewell (knee) have been ruled out.
On the Browns side, center Ethan Pocic has been ruled out, leaving Cleveland with just two healthy starting offensive linemen against Chicago. Defensive end Ogbo Okoronkwo and safety Juan Thornhill have also been ruled out.
