Bears’ Trubisky likely out vs. Lions

Chicago Bears quarterback Mitchell Trubisky was listed as doubtful yesterday for the tomorrow’s game in Detroit against the Lions.

Trubisky suffered a right shoulder injury in the fourth quarter of Sunday night’s 2520 win against the Minnesota Vikings.

If he can’t play, the Bears will turn to backup Chase

Daniel, who has not started or played extensively in an NFL game since 2014.

At 32, Daniel is the oldest player on the Chicago roster and hasn’t thrown more than two passes in a season since 2014 in Kansas City. He does have extensive knowledge of the Bears’ offensive system run by former Chiefs assistant and current Chicago head coach Matt Nagy.

Earlier this week, Chicago offensive coordinator Mark

Helfrich said he saw no reason for play-calling to be altered should Daniel play.

“They’re not that significantly different,” Helfrich said. “Certainly, you’re going to tailor things to one person or another absolutely, but within the same structure. We’re not going to change the offense if something happens. You can’t do that.”

The Bears (7-3) have won four straight games. Detroit (4-6) is coming off a win over Carolina after three straight losses.

Darnold in limbo

New York Jets quarterback Sam Darnold suited up for practice for the first time since injuring his right foot, but did not participate in team drills as he continues to recover.

“Every single day, I feel like I’m progressing so much more and doing so much more, in terms of running,” Darnold said. “Hopefully I can do a little bit more (Thursday) and see where we go from there.”

Coach Todd Bowles said Darnold is progressing, but is uncertain to play Sunday against the Patriots.

Darnold was injured at Miami on Nov. 4 and sat out the Jets’ previous game against Buffalo on Nov. 11.

Josh McCown started in his place and would do so again if Darnold is unable to play.

Darnold was in sweats during the past few practices before yesterday, but he appeared to have no restrictions during light warmups. He did not throw a pass during the 30-minute window the media is allowed to watch.

The No. 3 overall draft pick leads the NFL with a league-leading 14 interceptions and threw just two touchdown passes with seven interceptions in the three games before the injury.

Falcons’ Jones out

Atlanta Falcons linebacker

Deion Jones has been ruled out of tonight’s game at the New Orleans Saints.

Jones came off injured reserve last week after missing two months with a broken right foot. He was inactive against Dallas last Sunday.

Coach Dan Quinn said earlier in the week the goal was to have Jones regain full confidence in his foot so he could take advantage of his full potential.

Jones was the only Falcons player who had only limited availability in yesterday’s practice.

Cornerback Robert Alford

(foot), linebacker De’Vondre Campbell (thigh), safety

Damontae Kazee (shoulder), wide receiver Calvin Ridley (thigh) and cornerback Desmond Trufant (thigh) all had full participation after being limited on Tuesday . ...

The New Orleans Saints have activated returner and receiver Tommylee Lewis from injured reserve.

Meanwhile, the Saints have ruled out left tackle Terron Armstead for tonight’s night’s game against Atlanta because of his pectoral injury. — HERALD WIRE SERVICES
