Jackson (foot) is listed as out for Sunday's game versus Denver, Dan Wiederer of the Chicago Tribune reports.

Bears' Eddie Jackson: Remains sidelined
Jackson (foot) did not practice Wednesday, Kevin Fishbain of The Athletic reports.
Jackson hasn't touched the field since suffering the injury in Week 2 and should be considered questionable for Sunday's game against the Broncos. Elijah Hicks has since taken over at free safety and likely would again in Week 4 if he remains out.

Bears' Eddie Jackson: Out for Week 3
Jackson (foot) will not travel with the Bears for their Week 3 matchup against the Chiefs, Chris Emma of 670TheScore.com reports.
Jackson was unable to log a practice this past week after being carted off the field during Sunday's game against the Buccaneers. With Jackson out, expect Elijah Hicks and Quindell Johnson to see increased workloads against Patrick Mahomes and the Chiefs' passing attack in Week 3.

Bears' Eddie Jackson: Doubtful for Week 3
Jackson (foot) did not participate at practice Friday and is listed as doubtful for Sunday's game at Kansas City, Brad Biggs of the Chicago Tribune reports.
After he was carted off the field in Week 2 and missed practice during the week, it's actually somewhat surprising Jackson hasn't already been ruled out for Week 3 entirely. If he sits out as expected, 2022 seventh-rounder Elijah Hicks would likely see an increased workload in the defensive backfield.

Bears' Eddie Jackson: Missing from practice Wednesday
Jackson (foot) did not participate at practice Wednesday.

Bears' Eddie Jackson: Seemingly day-to-day
Coach Matt Eberflus said Monday that he's "not sure where it's going to trend this week" regarding the foot injury Jackson sustained in Week 2, Brad Biggs of the Chicago Tribune reports.
The comments actually look like a positive development for Jackson, who left Sunday's 27-17 loss at Tampa Bay on a cart. Chicago's injury reports throughout the week should shed more light on the exact severity of the issue he's dealing with.

Bears' Eddie Jackson: Won't return Sunday
Jackson (foot) has been ruled out for the remainder of Sunday's game against the Buccaneers, Courtney Cronin of ESPN.com reports.
Jackson was carted off the field after suffering a foot injury, so it's not surprising to see him quickly downgraded to out. Jaquan Brisker (illness) also left the game early, so Elijah Hicks and Quindell Johnson are candidates for increased roles the rest of the way. It's worth noting that Jackson missed five weeks last season due to a Lisfranc injury to the same foot, but it's unclear if the two injuries are related.

Bears' Eddie Jackson: Suffers foot injury against Bucs
Jackson injured his foot against Tampa Bay on Sunday and is questionable to return.
Jackson exited in the first half and was subsequently carted off with his leg propped up, per Courtney Cronin of ESPN.com. It's notable that the injury is to his left foot, as the defensive back missed five weeks last season due to a Lisfranc injury to the same foot. Fellow safety Jaquan Brisker also exited Sunday due to an illness. Elijah Hicks and Quindell Johnson have taken over against the Buccaneers in the absence of Chicago's starters.

Jackson had been dealing with an undisclosed injury for the last couple of weeks, but Chicago's first practice report of the regular season identified the nature of his injury.

Jackson (undisclosed) was back at Thursday's practice, Brad Biggs of the Chicago Tribune reports.
Jackson has been nursing an undisclosed injury for about a week, but it looks like the issue was not too serious. The 29-year-old is entering his seventh season as the Bears' starting free safety.

Jackson (undisclosed) did not participate in Thursday's joint practice with the Colts, Dan Wiederer of the Chicago Tribune reports.

Jackson didn't play after Week 12 last season due to a foot injury, but he's reportedly recovered from that issue and is expected to be Chicago's starting free safety in 2023.

Bears' Eddie Jackson: Firm hold on starting job
Jackson has no real competition for the Bears' starting free safety role, Adam Jahns of The Athletic reports.
Jackson appears to have shaken off the foot injury that landed him on injured reserve after Week 12 of the 2022 season. With the Bears having installed a new defense last year, Jackson's four interceptions was his highest total since 2018. He's free to roam and make plays in the defense, making him a strong IDP option.

Bears' Eddie Jackson: Back practicing again
Jackson (foot) participated in practice Wednesday at OTAs, Kevin Fishbain of The Athletic reports.
Per Patrick Finley of the Chicago Sun-Times, Jackson took part in all individual drills and got in a few team reps, as well. The Bears will presumably ease the safety back to 100 percent participation to avoid a setback, but he sounds close to putting last season's Lisfranc injury behind him. He should be good to go for the start of training camp.
