Chicago Bears Injury Update: DJ Moore & Austin Booker in Good Shape, Saints' Key Players Out 🏈

The Chicago Bears are heading into their Week 7 matchup against the New Orleans Saints with a mixed bag of injury news that could significantly impact Sunday’s game. On one hand, the team is seeing positive signs from key players like wide receiver DJ Moore, offensive lineman Jonah Jackson, and rookie edge rusher Austin Booker. All three are trending upward and could be active for the game, giving the Bears a much-needed boost on both sides of the ball.
DJ Moore, who has been a consistent playmaker this season, returned to practice and looks close to full speed. His presence would be a major asset against a Saints secondary that has struggled with consistency. Jonah Jackson’s return would help stabilize the offensive line, which has been dealing with depth issues. Meanwhile, Austin Booker’s potential return adds fresh energy to the pass rush, which will be crucial in pressuring Saints quarterback Derek Carr.
However, the Bears also received some troubling updates. Defensive lineman Grady Jarrett and kicker Cairo Santos are both trending toward being inactive for Sunday. Jarrett’s absence would be a blow to the defensive front, especially against a Saints team that likes to run the ball. Santos, one of the most reliable kickers in the league, being doubtful raises concerns about special teams execution in a potentially close game.
The Saints are also dealing with injury setbacks. Star wide receiver Chris Olave and dynamic running back Alvin Kamara are both questionable and may not suit up. If they’re out, the Saints’ offense could struggle to find rhythm, giving the Bears a strategic advantage.
This game is shaping up to be a battle of attrition, with both teams needing to adjust based on who’s available. The Bears will look to capitalize on their returning talent while finding ways to compensate for key absences. With playoff hopes still alive, every game matters—and this one could be pivotal.
