Bears' Kevin Byard: Strong season at safety
Byard recorded eight tackles (two solo) and an interception in the Bears' 19-16 loss to the Lions on Sunday.
Byard finished with 93 tackles and eight passes defended, including seven interceptions, marking his sixth season with at least four interceptions. He consistently posted between five and seven tackles across most outings, maintaining steady weekly value. He is set to hit free agency but remains an excellent IDP option heading into his age-32 season.

Bears' Kevin Byard: Ready to rock
Byard (ankle) has no injury designation ahead of Sunday's matchup against the 49ers.
Byard opened the Bears' week of practice with consecutive limited sessions due to an ankle issue, but it now appears he'll suit up Sunday. The 32-year-old is one of the league's top ball hawks, recording 83 total tackles and seven passes defensed, including six interceptions, over 15 appearances this season. Now fully healthy, he's expected to start alongside Jaquan Brisker in the Bears' secondary in Week 17.

Bears' Kevin Byard: Listed as limited again
Byard (ankle) is listed as limited on Thursday's estimated injury report.
Chicago didn't hold an on-field practice Thursday, but Byard appears to be progressing steadily after having also been listed as limited Wednesday. He played 100 percent of defensive snaps during the Bears' overtime win over Green Bay in Week 16. As long as Byard is able to get in at least limited practice reps again Friday, he'll have solid odds of gaining clearance for Sunday's game against the 49ers.

Bears' Kevin Byard: Limited with ankle issue
Byard (ankle ) was a limited participant in Wednesday's practice.
Byard played 100 percent of defensive snaps in last Saturday's overtime win over the Packers, so it is unclear when the starting safety sustained his ankle issue. Regardless of when it was sustained, the 32-year-old's ability to practice even in a limited capacity bodes well for his chances to suit up for Sunday night's game against the 49ers. Byard will have two more opportunities to increase his practice participation to full in hopes of dodging an injury designation ahead of Sunday's contest.

Bears' Kevin Byard: Posts season-high tackles
Byard recorded nine tackles, including five solo, in the Bears' 22-16 overtime win over the Packers on Saturday.
Byard delivered his highest tackle total of the season, surpassing his usual range of five to seven stops that he's posted in 11 contests. He also has six interceptions on the year, providing consistent splash-play upside from the secondary. The combination keeps him in the high-floor IDP tier.

Bears' Kevin Byard: Logs quiet tackle output Week 15
Byard totaled two tackles (both solo) in Sunday's 31-3 win over Cleveland.
Byard was part of a stifling Bears secondary that limited Shedeur Sanders to no touchdown tosses and picked off three passes, but the veteran safety posted a quiet stat line individually. His two tackles tied a season-low mark following a seven-game stretch during which he notched no fewer than five stops. Byard is still putting together an excellent campaign, as he leads the NFL with six interceptions.

Bears' Kevin Byard: Another steady tackle line
Byard recorded seven total tackles in the Bears' 28-21 loss to the Packers on Sunday.
Byard has between four and seven tackles in all but one contest this season, and he remains one of Chicago's most consistent defensive backs. With six interceptions on the year, he continues to profile as a high-floor IDP safety who adds reliable big-play ability.

Bears' Kevin Byard: Another fine game in win
Byard recorded six tackles (four solo) during Friday's 24-15 win at Philadelphia.
After Friday's contest, Byard has now collected exactly six tackles in four of his last seven games. He's doing enough to keep up a near every-down role at safety, but his per-snap production has lagged compared to last season, keeping him off the IDP radar in most formats.

Bears' Kevin Byard: Post six tackles vs. Pittsburgh
Byard logged six tackles (four solo) during the Bears' 31-28 win over the Steelers on Sunday.
Byard was one of four Bears players to play every single defensive snap, and the veteran safety finished tied for the fifth most tackles during Sunday's win. In the seven games since Chicago's Week 5 bye, Byard has accumulated 36 tackles (24 solo) and three pass defenses (two interceptions).
