Bears' Malik Muhammad: Unavailable for SNF
Muhammad (toe) is inactive for Sunday night's contest against Tampa Bay.
Muhammad was expected to be able to return to action in Week 9, but the cornerback will now be forced to miss a second straight game while nursing a toe injury he suffered in Week 7. In his absence, Josh Blackwell is a top candidate to see an increase in opportunities at cornerback behind starters Jaylon Johnson and Tyrique Stevenson versus the Buccaneers.

Bears' Malik Muhammad: Should suit up Sunday
Muhammad (toe) "should be good to go" for Sunday's game against the Buccaneers, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.

Bears' Malik Muhammad: Questionable for Sunday
Muhammad (toe) is officially listed as questionable for Sunday's game versus the Buccaneers.
Muhammad was limited at practice by his toe injury all week, just as he was before he was ultimately sidelined in Week 8 at Seattle. If he misses a second straight game, it could mean more opportunities on the boundary for Clark Phillips.

Bears' Malik Muhammad: Limited participant Wednesday
Muhammad (toe) was a limited participant at the Bears' walkthrough practice Wednesday.
Muhammad missed the team's Week 8 win over the Seahawks on Monday Night Football while nursing a toe injury that he suffered a week prior. The cornerback has now picked up where he left off at practice last week, logging a fourth straight limited session, and he will have two more chances to practice in full before Sunday's contest versus the Buccaneers.

Bears' Malik Muhammad: Won't play with toe issue
Muhammad (toe) is inactive for Monday's game against the Seahawks.
Muhammad injured his toe in the Bears' Week 7 win over the Patriots. The cornerback's three consecutive limited practice sessions during Week 8 prep were evidently not enough to suit up, and the reserve option will be sidelined for Monday Night Football. Josh Blackwell and Clark Phillips are set to be the reserve options at outside cornerback for the game.

Bears' Malik Muhammad: Questionable vs. Seattle
Muhammad (toe) is listed as questionable for Monday's game against the Seahawks.
Muhammad injured his toe against the Patriots in Week 7, and the injury limited his practice participation in all three sessions during Week 8 prep. Josh Blackwell and Clark Phillips would both be in line for more defensive snaps if Muhammad is not cleared to play.

Bears' Malik Muhammad: Dealing with toe injury
Muhammad (toe) is doubtful to return to Thursday night's contest against the Patriots.
Muhammad is dealing with a toe injury, and he will now likely be forced to watch the remainder of the game from the Bears' sideline. In Muhammad's absence, Josh Blackwell and Clark Phillips are both candidates to see an increase in workload at cornerback.

Bears' Malik Muhammad: Good to go against Minnesota
Muhammad (ankle) does not have an injury designation for Sunday's NFC North clash against the Vikings.
Muhammad was limited in practice by an ankle injury earlier in the week, but he shed an injury designation for Week 2 after practicing in full Friday. The rookie fourth-rounder operated in an elevated role defensively during the Bears' Week 1 win over the Panthers, but his playing time will likely take a hit due to the return of veteran safety Xavier Woods (groin).

Bears' Malik Muhammad: Working through ankle injury
Muhammad (ankle) was a limited participant in Wednesday's practice.
The rookie fourth-round defensive back may have tweaked his ankle during the Bears' 59-37 win over the Panthers in Week 1, when he logged three tackles (two solo) and two pass defenses (including an interception). Muhammad will have two more opportunities to log a full practice and avoid an injury designation for the Bears' NFC North tilt against the Vikings on Sunday.

Bears' Malik Muhammad: Scooped up by Chicago
The Bears selected Muhammad in the fourth round of the 2026 NFL Draft, 124th overall.
Muhammad (6-feet, 182 pounds) is perhaps on the smaller side for a boundary corner, but the former Texas standout has good reach (32 and 3/8-inch arms) for press purposes and his 4.42-second 40 demonstrates enough recovery speed to buy the idea of Muhammad starting down the road. He might be able to put some heat on Tyrique Stevenson for the second boundary corner role behind Jaylon Johnson as soon as this year.
