  • Bears' Joel Iyiegbuniwe: Posts no stats in loss

    Iyiegbuniwe didn't record any stats in the Bears' 31-17 Week 18 loss to the Vikings, and he ended the season with four tackles. Iyiegbuniwe played exclusively on special teams, and unless he moves into a prominent role on defense wherever he signs, he won't be a recommended option in 2022 IDP leagues. He'll be an unrestricted free agent this offseason.

  • Bears' Joel Iyiegbuniwe: Will miss Week 4

    Iyiegbuniwe (hamstring) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Lions.

  • Bears' Joel Iyiegbuniwe: Unlikely to play in London

    Iyiegbuniwe is doubtful to play Sunday against the Raiders in London due to a hamstring injury.

  • Bears' Joel Iyiegbuniwe: Sees game action Saturday

    Iyiegbuniwe (shoulder) made two tackles -- one for a loss -- during Saturday's 27-20 preseason win over the Chiefs. Iyiegbuniwe, whom the Bears picked in the fourth round of April's draft, won't see many defensive snaps behind Danny Trevathan and rookie first-round pick Roquan Smith (hamstring). However, he showed he could be a disruptive force and will likely make the 53-man roster.

  • Bears' Joel Iyiegbuniwe: Returns to practice

    Iyiegbuniwe (shoulder) was a limited participant in Sunday's practice, Rich Campbell of the Chicago Tribune reports.

The fourth-round rookie is competing for a depth role at inside linebacker this summer.
