Newsome suffered a fractured collarbone during Tuesday's practice, Tom Pelissero of NFL Network reports.
Newsome reportedly had a "clean" break, which means the rookie sixth-round pick is facing an eight-week estimated recovery timeline. He suffered the injury 10 and a half weeks before the Bears' first preseason game, so it's possible the setback doesn't have much impact on his bid to earn a roster spot and a role within the Chicago offense. He caught 188 passes for 2,435 yards and 18 touchdowns over his four seasons at North Carolina, peaking in 2019 with a 72-1,018-10 receiving line in 12 games.
