The Chicago Bears have been hammered by illnesses this week, and two more players were added to their injury report Sunday.
According to the team, wide receivers DJ Moore and Olamide Zaccheaus have both been added to the report and both are listed as questionable, making them the seventh and eighth players to deal with an unspecified illness this week.
Moore had one of his best games of the season last week, hauling in five catches for 97 yards and the game-winning touchdown against the Green Bay Packers at Soldier Field.
Zaccheaus has 39 catches for 313 yards and two touchdowns for the Bears this season.
The Bears are already short-handed at the wide receiver position, as Rome Odunze will miss another game due to a foot injury.
Fellow wide receiver Devin Duvernay was out of practice Wednesday and Thursday due to illness, but he fully participated in practice Friday and is expected to play.
Defensive back Nick McCloud was ruled out due to illness, and defensive backs Josh Blackwell and Nahshon Wright were listed as questionable due to illness, as was right tackle Darnell Wright.
According to Brad Biggs of the Chicago Tribune, Wright traveled to San Francisco on Sunday, and he is expected to be a game-time decision for the Bears.
Finally, D’Marco Jackson missed practices this week with an illness, but he is expected to play Sunday.
The Bears’ inactives list will be due Sunday evening, with kickoff set for 7:20 p.m.
