Nate Davis Latest News
Active but may not start
Davis (groin) is active for Sunday's game against Indianapolis. Davis aggravated his groin injury during Wednesday's practice, which limited him in Thursday's session and caused him to be a DNP on Friday. He'll be active for Sunday's game, though he could operate in a depth role and cede the starting right guard spot to Matt Pryor, according to Kevin Fishbain of The Athletic.
Questionable with groin issue
Davis (groin) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game at Houston, Kevin Fishbain of The Athletic reports. Davis aggravated a lingering groin injury at practice during the week, and now his status for Sunday's contest is up in the air. If he can't play in Week 3, Matt Pryor would project to start in his place.
Returns to practice
Davis (undisclosed) practiced with the starters in Tuesday's session, Brad Biggs of the Chicago Tribune reports. Davis was considered week-to-week with what was described as a soft-tissue issue, but the veteran guard appears to have recovered from the injury. The 2019 third-round pick is projected to serve as the Bears' starting right guard for the upcoming season.
Week-to-week with injury
Head coach Matt Eberflus said after Thursday's practice that Davis (undisclosed) is dealing with a soft-tissue injury and is considered week-to-week, Chris Emma of 670TheScore.com reports. No further details have been provided, but Davis will miss the Bears' preseason opener against the Bills on Saturday, and the 27-year-old guard could also be held out against the Bengals on Aug. 17. Matt Pryor and Ja'Tyre Carter are candidates to serve as the starting right guard for Saturday's contest in Davis' absence.
Returns to practice Sunday
Davis (undisclosed) is practicing Sunday, Sean Hammong of Shaw Local reports. Davis suffered an injury during practice July 27 and ended up sitting out for a week. However, he's back on the practice field Sunday, so the issue doesn't appear to be serious. Davis may be worked back into practice cautiously given the amount of time he was sidelined.
Exits practice with injury
Davis (undisclosed) departed from Saturday's practice early due to an injury, Adam Jahns of The Athletic reports. Head coach Matt Eberflus characterized the injury as a "strain" but didn't indicate which area of Davis' body was hurt. Injuries were an issue for the offensive lineman last season, as he played in only 11 games due to separate ankle and foot issues. The severity of his current issue isn't yet certain, but if he's able to recover relatively quickly, Davis is expected to open the regular season as Chicago's starting right guard.
Limited at minicamp
Davis (foot) was spotted working out in a limited fashion during Wednesday's minicamp, Alyssa Barbieri of USA Today reports. Davis sustained a foot injury during the Bears' 2023 season finale and he is still going through the recovery process. Head coach Matt Eberflus told reporters Thursday that Davis will be the team's starting right guard heading into the 2024 season, and he expects the 27-year-old to be back at full health by the beginning of training camp.
Won't play in Week 8
Davis will miss his fourth game of the season Sunday as he works to recover from a high right ankle sprain he sustained in Week 6 versus Minnesota. His absence should open the door for Lucas Patrick to get another start on the interior of Chicago's offensive line in Week 8.
