The Chicago Bears added right tackle Darnell Wright to the injury report Saturday as the three-year starter deals with an illness.

Wright did not travel with the team and is listed as questionable for Sunday's game at the San Francisco 49ers. The No. 10 overall selection in the 2023 draft has started all 47 games he has played for the Bears.

Chicago (11-4) already has clinched a playoff spot and will win the NFC North title with a victory or a Green Bay Packers loss to the Baltimore Ravens on Saturday night.

The Bears also activated offensive lineman Luke Newman (foot) from injured reserve and added him to the 53-man roster, while defensive tackle Jonathan Ford was released. Wide receiver JP Richardson and cornerback Dallis Flowers were elevated from the practice squad.

Newman, 23, has played in nine games since he was selected in the sixth round of the most recent draft out of Michigan State. Ford, 26, appeared in eight games for the Bears this season.

Flowers played in one game this season while Richardson has yet to make his NFL debut.
