PREGAME

The Bears and Broncos have announced their inactive list and it looks like good news for Chicago and bad news for Denver.

Denver Broncos inactive list: Cornerback Bryce Callahan, inside linebackers Todd Davis and Joe Jones, offensive tackle Ja’Wuan James, fullback Andy Janovich, wide receiver Juwann Winfree, defensive lineman Mike Purcell.

The Broncos are missing starting RT, ILB, CB, and FB.

Chicago Bears inactive list: Offensive lineman Rashaad Coward, cornerback Kevin Toliver II, safety Sherrick McManis, inside linebacker Josh Woods, running back Kerrith Whyte Jr., tight end J.P. Holtz, wide out Riley Ridley.

This means that tight end Trey Burton will be active.
