Bears' Justin Layne: Unavailable Week 15
Layne (coach's decision) is inactive for Sunday's game against the Eagles.
Layne is now slated to miss this weekend's matchup versus Philadelphia due to a coach's decision. He's primarily operated as a special-teams contributor thus far in 2022, so his absence shouldn't greatly alter Chicago's defensive game plan Sunday.

Bears' Justin Layne: Picked up by Chicago
The Bears claimed Layne off waivers Tuesday, Field Yates of ESPN reports.
Layne was a 2019 third-round draft pick by Pittsburgh and spent his first three NFL campaigns with the Steelers. He played in all 17 games last season but was used primarily on special teams. The same can be said for his usage in 2022, as he's played in seven games for the Giants but mainly as a special-teams contributor. There's a shot that Layne will be able to rejuvenate his defensive career in Chicago.
