Fantasy Impact

Multiple reports have confirmed that Patrick has a broken right thumb and is expected to require surgery. The offensive line was already a huge concern for Chicago, but center was believed to be one of their more stable positions after they locked up the former Green Bay Packer in free agency to a two-year, $8M deal. Luckily, the Bears are hopeful with the injury happening early on in camp, Patrick will be ready to suit up for their Week 1 home opener against the San Francisco 49ers.
