The Bears have also listed safety DeAndre Houston-Carson, guard Cameron Lee, running back Taquan Mizzell and quarterback Mark Sanchez as inactive.

The Bengals are also missing some key players, listing cornerback Dre Kirkparick, running back Joe Mixon, safety Shawn Williams, linebacker Vontaze Burfict, linebacker Nick Vigil, guard Christian Westerman and defensive tackle Josh Tupou as inactive.
