(670 The Score) Bears left guard Teven Jenkins is questionable to play against the Carolina Panthers on Sunday.
Jenkins has been dealing with bruised ribs, which forced him to exit the Bears' 24-18 win against the Rams last weekend. He was a limited participant in practice Thursday and Friday after being held out Wednesday.
If Jenkins is cleared to start, the Bears would likely turn to Matt Pryor at right guard. If Jenkins is sidelined, Pryor would assume Jenkins' place at left guard, with Nate Davis starting at right guard.
The Bears also listed receiver/returner DeAndre Carter (ribs) as questionable. Cornerback Terell Smith (hip) and defensive tackle Zacch Pickens (groin) were each ruled out.
Kickoff between the Bears (2-2) and Panthers (1-3) is set for noon CT on Sunday from Soldier Field.
