Bears' Ryan Bates: Remaining sidelined for Week 14
Bates (concussion) did not practice Friday and has been ruled out for Sunday's game against San Francisco.
Bates was diagnosed with a concussion during the Bears' Week 11 loss to the Packers, and he will miss a third straight game as a result. The fact he hasn't returned to practice since the diagnosis indicates that Bates has not been able to progress through the league's five-step concussion protocols, which makes a return for Week 15 against the Vikings an uphill battle. Teven Jenkins will continue to start at left guard for the Bears in Bates' absence.

Bears' Ryan Bates: Ruled out for Week 12
Bates (concussion) won't play against Minnesota on Sunday.
Bates suffered a head injury in Sunday's loss to Green Bay and hasn't been able to practice this week. The Bears have a quick turnaround after Week 12 with a Thanksgiving Day game against Detroit, and Bates will need to clear the NFL's five-step concussion protocol by then in order to be able to suit up Week 13. Teven Jenkins is likely to start at left guard until Bates is able to return.
