(670 The Score) The Bears have activated pass rusher Robert Quinn and offensive tackle Elijah Wilkinson from the reserve/COVID-19 list, they announced Friday.
Quinn and Wilkinson, who each missed Chicago's loss at Tampa Bay last week, are eligible to play when the Bears host the 49ers this Sunday at Soldier Field.
The Bears placed tackle Germain Ifedi on the reserve/COVID-19 list on Friday. He was also on injured reserve. He joins tight end Jimmy Graham as the Bears' lone two players on the reserve/COVID-19 list.
Quinn has been a standout for the Bears' defense this season, recording 5.5 sacks in six games. Wilkinson has played in seven games and started one.
With the return of Wilkinson, the Bears have another option to fill a void at right tackle. He was placed on the reserve/COVID-19 list just prior to the Bears' loss to the Buccaneers on Sunday, forcing Chicago to turn to Lachavious Simmons and Alex Bars at right tackle.
The Bears haven't yet named a starter at right tackle for this Sunday.
