Ekuale (abdomen) is listed as questionable ahead of Sunday's matchup against the Bears.
Ekuale upgraded to a full practice Friday after opening the week with back-to-back limited sessions, so it appears he's trending toward playing in Sunday's contest. However, if the Washington State product is unable to play through his abdomen issue, expect Jeremiah Pharms and Deatrich Wise to see increased snaps with New England's first-team defensive line.
