Dalton Kincaid injury update

He sported a non-contact jersey during the week and turned in three limited practices before drawing the questionable tag on Friday.
While that would seem to suggest he’s close to 50/50 to play, ESPN’s Jeremy Fowler reports that Kincaid is “pretty confident” he’ll suit up, so we expect him to go.
Colston Loveland injury update

The second-year tight end was listed as limited on Friday, so that suggests he came down with the injury at practice, although we can’t say for sure.
Being a mid-week addition to the injury report is usually a bad sign for a player’s chances of suiting up, but without more information on the severity, it’s hard to know how close to sitting out Loveland is.

The Bears will put out their final injury report of the week on Saturday afternoon, so we’ll know more then.
Colby Parkinson injury update

Parkinson did not practice at all this week before being labeled as questionable going into the weekend.
Based on his lack of practice participation, we’d expect Parkinson to be ruled out in Week 8.
