Ready for Sunday
Amegadjie (quadriceps) was a full participant in Friday's practice and has no injury designation ahead of Sunday's game against the Titans. Amengadjie was limited earlier in the week due to a quadriceps issue, but it appears he's recovered just in time for Chicago's Week 1 outing. Expect the rookie offensive lineman out of Yale to serve as one of the Bears' top backup tackles Sunday.
Activated off NFI list
The Bears activated Amegadjie (quadriceps) from the active/non-football injury list Sunday, Scott Bair of the Falcons' official site reports. Amegadjie started training camp on the NFI list due to a quadriceps injury that kept him out of OTAs and minicamp. Now that he's passed his physical, the rookie fourth-rounder will look to get his first taste of NFL action in the Bears' preseason finale against the Chiefs on Thursday.
Starting camp on NFI list
The Bears placed Amegadjie (quadriceps) on the active/NFI list Wednesday, Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2 Houston reports. Amegadjie was injured prior to the NFL Draft earlier this offseason and missed all of OTAs and minicamp after the Bears took him in the third round at No. 75 overall. It's hard to envision Amegadjie pushing Braxton Jones or Darnell Wright for a starting job this summer after all of the missed reps.
Likely out for OTAs and camp
Amegadjie likely won't participate in OTAs or in rookie minicamp due to a quadriceps injury he sustained prior to the draft, Jason Lieser of the Chicago Sun-Times reports. It's likely Chicago was aware Amegadjie wouldn't be fully ready to go right from the jump, so it's probably too early to start ringing any alarm bells. Once ready, he'll compete for reps at tackle with Braxton Jones and Darnell Wright.
