Fantasy Impact

Edmunds, 27, led the Bears in tackles with 112 last season, and has recorded at least 102 tackles in each of his eight NFL seasons. He dealt with a minor injury in 2025, but was healthy to finish the season and should attract plenty of interest on the trade market this offseason.

The Bears are expected to activate LB Tremaine Edmunds from injured reserve for Saturday's game against the Packers.

Edmunds was recently designated to return from injured reserve and was able to log a limited practice session on Wednesday. He could be back in the lineup as soon as Saturday, but even if he isn't, he should be available to make his return in the very near future, which is great news for Chicago's defense as a whole.
