Bears

• Bears HC Matt Nagy announced that S Eddie Jackson has a right ankle sprain.

Packers

• Ian Rapoport reports that Packers RB Aaron Jones is believed to have suffered a sprained MCL during Sunday’s loss to the Bears. However, the injury is not considered serious.
• Packers QB Aaron Rodgers said when asked if he’d be okay if the team wanted to take a look at QB DeShone Kizer: “I’d like to be out there the last two weeks.” (Tom Silverstein)

Saints

Based on what he’s gathered, Jeff Duncan believes the Saints graded the top quarterback prospects in the 2018 NFL Draft as:

1. Sam Darnold
2. Baker Mayfield
3. Josh Allen
4. Josh Rosen 
5. Lamar Jackson

Duncan adds that the Saints didn’t have anyone graded nearly as high as Patrick Mahomes in 2017.
