DJ Moore to Darnell Wright: List of Bears starters on injury report with mystery illness

A undulation of malady continues to bubble through and through the windy city Bears’ locker room, adding more names to an already concerning injury report ahead of the Sunday game against the San Francisco 49ers. Just hours before kickoff, wide receivers DJ Moore and Olamide Zaccheaus were listed with an illness on Sunday afternoon. They are questionable.

Moore and Zaccheaus have joined a concerning list of questionable starters. Right tackle Darnell Wright, who did not travel with the team on Saturday because he was sick, is flying to the Bay Area on Sunday and remains questionable to play.

Earlier in the week, the Bears also placed cornerbacks Nick McCloud and Josh Blackwell, receiver Devin Duvernay and linebacker D’Marco Jackson on the report due to the same undisclosed illness, with McCloud ruled out Friday.

Chicago is looking to secure the No. 1 seed held by the Seahawks (12-3).

"Our step No. 1 was to get to 11 (wins)," Bears coach Ben Johnson said. "There's never been an 11-win team to not make it, and so we felt pretty good about that being the number going into the season. That was step one. Step two is we want to win this division. We want to have at least one home playoff game. And then step three would be clinch a No. 1 seed.
