Bears' Nahshon Wright: Emerges as full-time starter
Wright recorded six tackles, including five solo, in the Bears' 19-16 loss to the Lions on Sunday.
Wright finished with 80 tackles, 11 passes defended, including five interceptions, one touchdown, two forced fumbles and three fumble recoveries after earning a starting role early in the season. He exceeded expectations following limited usage over his first four NFL seasons and never relinquished his spot. He is set to hit free agency and projects as a highly sought-after IDP entering 2026.

Bears' Nahshon Wright: Seven-tackle effort logged
Wright recorded seven tackles, including six solo, in the Bears' 42-38 loss to the 49ers on Sunday.
Wright posted more than six tackles for the fourth time this season and for the second time since Week 9. He also has five interceptions on the year, supplying occasional splash plays despite fluctuating tackle totals. The mix leaves him as an inconsistent IDP with big-play-driven upside.

Bears' Nahshon Wright: Active for SNF
Wright (hamstring/illness) is active for Sunday night's matchup with the 49ers.
The cornerback was limited in Wednesday's practice, listed as limited on Thursday's estimated practice report and then held out of Friday's session, but he's good to go despite trending in the wrong direction. Wright has played on more than 90 percent of the defensive snaps in every game but one this season, recording 67 total tackles (43 solo), 11 pass breakups, including five interceptions, two forced fumbles and three fumble recoveries.

Bears' Nahshon Wright: Questionable for Week 17
Wright (hamstring/illness) is listed as questionable ahead of Sunday's matchup against the 49ers.
The Oregon State product downgraded from a limited practice Thursday to a DNP on Friday, suggesting he's trending in the wrong direction ahead of the Week 17 contest. Wright has appeared in all 15 of Chicago's games this season, recording 67 total tackles, 11 passes defensed, including five interceptions, and two forced fumbles. If active Sunday, he's expected to serve as one of the Bears' top boundary cornerbacks.

Bears' Nahshon Wright: Estimated as limited
Wright (hamstring) is listed as a limited participant on Thursday's estimated practice report.
The Bears didn't actually host an on-field practice Thursday, but Wright's estimated activity level mirrors the limited reps he logged Wednesday. As long as the starting cornerback is able to practice in at least a limited capacity again Friday, he'll be a solid candidate to gain clearance in time for Sunday's road matchup against the 49ers.

Bears' Nahshon Wright: Limited Wednesday
Wright (hamstring) was a limited participant in Wednesday's practice.
Wright played 100 percent of defensive snaps in the Bears' 22-16 overtime win over the Packers last Sunday, so it is unclear where he picked up the hamstring issue. The cornerback's ability to start the week practicing bodes well for his chances of suiting up for Sunday night's game against the 49ers. If Wright can string together consecutive practices to end the week, he has the opportunity to avoid an injury designation ahead of Sunday's contest.

Bears' Nahshon Wright: Heavy tackle involvement
Wright recorded eight tackles, including three solo, in the Bears' 22-16 overtime win over the Packers on Saturday.
Wright logged his third game this season with more than six tackles and his first such outing with at least eight stops since Week 8. He also has five interceptions this season, though tackle totals have fluctuated week-to-week. That mix leaves him as an inconsistent IDP with big-play-driven upside.

Bears' Nahshon Wright: Forces and recovers fumble
Wright finished with five tackles (four solo), a forced fumble and a fumble recovery in Friday's 24-15 win over the Eagles.
The cornerback forced and recovered the same fumble on a tush push attempt in the third quarter. Wright also played on all 51 defensive snaps even with Jaylon Johnson (groin) and Kyler Gordon (calf) back from injuries. He has played on at least 66 percent of the defensive snaps in every game this season, recording 54 tackles (38 solo), 10 pass breakups, including five interceptions, and three fumble recoveries, so he should maintain some sort of role moving forward.

Bears' Nahshon Wright: Adds another interception
Wright recorded six tackles, including three solo, and one interception in the Bears' 31-28 win over the Steelers on Sunday.
Wright has five or more tackles in three of his last seven contests and now has five interceptions on the season, including four over his last six games. With Jaylon Johnson (groin) nearing a return from injured reserve, Wright is at risk of sliding back into a reserve role, making his IDP value more matchup- and snap-dependent going forward.

Bears' Nahshon Wright: Adds another takeaway
Wright recorded one tackle and one interception in the Bears' 19-17 win over the Vikings on Sunday.
Wright has four or fewer tackles in four of his last five contests and now has four interceptions this season, including three over his last five. He remains a moderate-floor IDP with interception-driven upside.

Bears' Nahshon Wright: Recovers fumble in Week 10 win
Wright posted three solo tackles, two pass defenses and a fumble recovery during the Bears' 24-20 win over the Giants on Sunday.
Wright recovered a Jaxson Dart fumble late in the third quarter, and the Bears were able to convert on the turnover with a Cairo Santos 22-yard field goal eight plays later. Wright has recorded an interception or a fumble recovery in four of his last five games and is up to 42 combined tackles through nine regular-season games.

Bears' Nahshon Wright: Intercepts pass in win
Wright collected four tackles (two solo) and intercepted one pass for a six-yard return in the Bears' 47-42 win over the Bengals on Sunday.
Wright has recorded a takeaway in two of his last three games and continues to see significant outside-corner snaps. His fantasy value hinges on turnover production, making him a matchup-based IDP play.

Bears' Nahshon Wright: Nine tackles in defeat
Wright recorded nine tackles in the Bears' 30-16 loss to the Ravens on Sunday.
Wright set a new high-water mark with nine stops one week after posting two tackles and an interception in Week 7. The cornerback's production has been volatile all season, and the low-floor games he's prone to have make him a risky IDP.

Bears' Nahshon Wright: Practices in full
Wright (hip) was a full participant in Thursday's practice.
Wright was limited in practice Wednesday, but he's already put his hip injury behind him. He can be considered on track to handle his usual starting role at cornerback on the road against the Ravens on Sunday. Across six regular-season appearances, Wright has already racked up career-high marks across the board, with 26 total tackles (19 solo), four pass breakups (including two interceptions, one of which he returned for a touchdown), plus one fumble recovery.

Bears' Nahshon Wright: Managing hip issue
Wright (hip) was a limited practice participant Wednesday.
Wright intercepted a pass and played all but one defensive snap this past Sunday against the Saints, but he appears to have hurt his hip during the victory. Given that the cornerback was able to practice in limited fashion Wednesday, though, he may not be dealing with a major injury. Wright will likely enter the weekend without an injury designation if he's able to bump up to full practice participation by Friday.

Bears' Nahshon Wright: Picks off pass in victory
Wright posted two tackles and intercepted a pass in the Bears' 26-14 win over the Saints on Sunday.
Wright's interception marked his second of the season, and his two-tackle total represents the first time he has had less than four stops in four games. He remains an IDP bench option with occasional upside.
