Rotowire
Edmunds recorded 11 tackles (eight solo), including a sack, in the Bears' 19-13 loss to the Texans on Sunday.

Rotowire
Edmunds (knee) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game at the Lions.

Bears' Tremaine Edmunds: Viewed as day-to-day
Rotowire
Bears head coach Matt Eberflus said Wednesday that Edmunds (knee) is considered day-to-day, Kevin Fishbain of The Athletic reports.
Edmunds was originally feared to have suffered a more significant injury when he left Sunday's 30-13 loss to the Chargers with a knee injury, so Eberflus' update is a positive one. Still, the linebacker's practice participation will be worth monitoring as the Bears prepare to face the Saints in Week 9. Jack Sanborn would be in line for a larger role if Edmunds sits out Sunday in New Orleans.

Bears' Tremaine Edmunds: Monster performance
Rotowire
Edmunds tallied 16 stops in the Bears' 27-17 loss to the Buccaneers on Sunday.
After notching eight tackles in Week 1, Edmunds easily led the Bears in tackles against Tampa Bay. With opposing offenses moving the ball with ease against Chicago, the defense may be on the field for a high number of weekly snaps. As a result, Edmunds may be both a high-floor and high-upside IDP going forward.

Bills' Tremaine Edmunds: Sits out walkthrough Monday
Rotowire
Edmunds (groin) was listed as a non-participant on Monday's estimated injury report, Chris Brown of the Bills' official site reports.
Edmunds sustained a groin injury Week 10 against the Vikings, and he was then ruled inactive after failing to practice ahead of Sunday's win over the Browns. While the 24-year-old remained sidelined during Monday's walkthrough, he will still have two more practices to increase his activity before a road matchup against Detroit on Thanksgiving Day.

Bills' Tremaine Edmunds: Questionable for Sunday
Rotowire
Edmunds (groin/heel) was a limited participant in practice Friday and is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Vikings, Chris Brown of the Bills' official site reports.
Edmunds returned to practice after sitting out Wednesday and Thursday with separate groin and heel injuries. The starting middle linebacker has played a massive role for Buffalo this season, recording 62 tackles, one sack and two passes defended over seven games, so his potential absence would be a big hit for the team's defense. If Edmunds is either sidelined or limited against Minnesota, expect Tyrel Dodson to take on a larger role alongside Matt Milano.
