(670 The Score) The Bears had no surprise inactives against the Packers on Sunday, having already ruled out cornerbacks Jaylon Johnson (shoulder) and Buster Skrine (concussion) on Friday.
Johnson will miss his third straight game due to a right shoulder injury, which he suffered on a hit against Texans quarterback Deshaun Watson in a game on Dec. 13. Skrine will miss his fourth contest due to the concussion. Rookie Kindle Vildor is expected to start in place of Johnson, and Duke Shelley will likely take over the nickelback position in Skrine's absence.
The Bears' other inactives were safety Deon Bush (foot), tackle Lachavious Simmons, defensive lineman Daniel McCullers and receiver Riley Ridley.
Kickoff between the Bears (8-7) and Packers (12-3) comes at 3:25 p.m. CT on Sunday from Soldier Field. Chicago will clinch a playoff berth with a victory.
