Bears' Gervon Dexter: Should be good to go
Dexter (hand) was a full participant in practice Thursday ahead of Friday's matchup with the Eagles.
The defensive tackle upgraded from limited participation Wednesday to full participation Thursday. Dexter has played on at least 51 percent of the defensive snaps in all 11 of Chicago's games this year, recording 26 tackles (12 solo), including 4.0 sacks, and two fumble recoveries in total.

Bears' Gervon Dexter: Nursing hand injury
Dexter (hand) was a limited participant in Wednesday's practice.
The third-year pro from Florida was not listed on Chicago's injury report Tuesday but was limited Wednesday, suggesting this hand injury occurred during practice. Dexter has appeared in all 11 of the Bears' games this season, recording 26 total tackles, including 4.0 sacks, and two fumble recoveries. If he's sidelined for Friday's matchup against the Eagles, Andrew Billings will likely have an expanded role on Chicago's defensive line.

Bears' Gervon Dexter: Records sack in loss
Dexter tallied seven tackles, including 1.0 sacks and two tackles for loss, in the Bears' 30-16 loss to the Ravens on Sunday.
Dexter has 3.5 sacks on the season, but 2.5 of those have come in the last three games. His low-tackle production keeps him a sack-dependent IDP with moderate upside at defensive tackle.

Bears' Gervon Dexter: Breaks out in second season
Dexter tallied five stops in the Bears' 24-22 win over the Packers on Sunday.
Dexter finished the season with 51 tackles (23 solo), including 5.0 sacks, one pass defensed and two fumble recoveries over 15 games. The 2023 second-round pick looked like one of the more promising young defensive tackles in the league. Dexter is signed through 2026, and he'll be an excellent IDP option in leagues that use an interior defensive-line position.

Bears' Gervon Dexter: Good to go for Week 17
Dexter (knee) is not among Chicago's inactives for Thursday's matchup against Seattle.
Dexter missed Chicago's past two games due to a knee issue, but he's set to return Thursday after logging a DNP/LP/LP practice progression this week. The second-year defensive tackle had started each of the Bears' first 13 games before getting hurt Week 14 against San Francisco. Dexter will likely retake his starting role against the Seahawks, which could lead to Chris Williams logging fewer defensive snaps.

Bears' Gervon Dexter: Questionable versus Seahawks
Dexter (knee) is questionable for Thursday's matchup versus the Seahawks.
Dexter missed the team's Week 16 loss versus the Lions with a knee injury and is now in danger of missing a second straight game. If he ends up being unable to play Thursday, Chris Williams will likely start at defensive tackle in his place.

Bears' Gervon Dexter: Limited on Monday's estimation
Dexter (knee) was listed as a limited participant on Monday's estimated practice report.
Dexter was injured in Week 14 against San Francisco and has missed Chicago's last two contests. He's trending in the right direction after logging a limited practice last Friday following a pair of DNPs. Dexter has been a bright spot for the Bears' defense this season, logging 44 tackles (23 solo), including 5.0 sacks, 16 total QB hits and a pair of fumble recoveries. Chris Williams, Byron Cowart and Zacch Pickens paced the Bears in defensive snaps at defensive tackle against the Lions this past Sunday.

Bears' Gervon Dexter: Out Week 16
Dexter (knee) is inactive for Sunday's game versus the Lions.
Dexter was limited at Friday's practice following back-to-back DNPs, but that trend in the right direction will not be enough to get him the green light versus Detroit. In his absence, Chris Williams, Byron Cowart and Jonathan Ford are candidates to fill in at defensive tackle next to Zacch Pickens.

Dexter (knee) was a limited participant in Friday's practice and is questionable for this weekend's matchup against Detroit.
