Owens tallied seven stops and an interception in the Bears' 38-13 loss to the 49ers on Sunday. Owens has now recorded seven or eight tackles in each of the three games in which the veteran has taken over for the injured Elijah Hicks (ankle). As long as Owens is needed in the starting lineup, he'll remain a plug-and-play IDP option.

Owens is likely to be Chicago's second-string free safety behind Kevin Byard after both players were signed to a contract in March. After the Bears signed Byard to a two-year, $15 million contract, it seems likely that Owens will back up Byard at free safety. Should Owens move into a regular role at some point, he could have significant IDP value after averaging 105 tackles over the past two seasons.

Owens (knee) was limited in Thursday's practice. Owens was estimated as limited in Wednesday's walkthrough. He's been dealing with the knee issue for weeks but has yet to miss a game. Owens played 70 percent of the Packers' defensive snaps this season, starting in 11 of 17 appearances. He finished the regular season with 84 tackles (58 solo), three pass breakups, one forced fumble and a fumble recovery that Owens returned for a touchdown.

Owens (knee) was deemed a limited participant in Wednesday's practice walkthrough. Owens has been dealing with a knee injury for more than a month, but the issue has yet to cost him any time. In fact, the starting safety has played every one of the Packers' defensive snaps since Week 13. With that in mind, it seems very likely that he'll be able to suit up for Sunday's wild-card game against the Cowboys, barring any setbacks.

Owens (knee) has no injury designation ahead of Sunday's game against the Bears, Rob Demovsky of ESPN.com reports. Owens has been dealing with a lingering knee injury over the last couple of weeks, but it seems as if that issue won't stop him from suiting up Sunday. The 28-year-old has been all over the place for Green Bay's defense this year, and he'll look to add to his 78 total tackles on the season in a crucial Week 18 matchup against the Bears.
