Carter (ribs) was a limited participant in practice Thursday. Carter logged a DNP on Wednesday, so this is a step in the right direction for the veteran wideout and return man. However, his status for Sunday's game against the Panthers remains in question. If he's unable to play, the team may make Velus Jones active for the first time since Week 1 to handle return duties in the kicking game.

Carter (ribs) was a limited participant in practice Thursday. Carter logged a DNP on Wednesday, so this is a step in the right direction for the veteran wideout and return man. However, his status for Sunday's game against the Panthers remains in question. If he's unable to play, the team may make Velus Jones active for the first time since Week 1 to handle return duties in the kicking game.
Kmet (knee) practiced fully Thursday. Kmet showed up on the Bears' first Week 5 practice report Wednesday as limited due to a knee injury, but he was able to handle a full allotment of reps one day later, effectively clearing him ahead of Sunday's game against the Panthers. Aside from a 10-97-1 showing on 11 targets Week 3 at Indianapolis, he's combined for eight catches (on nine targets) for 65 yards and no touchdowns in his other three outings this season.
Kmet was a limited practice participant Wednesday due to a knee injury. Kmet handled a full workload in Sunday's 24-18 win over the Rams, playing 93 percent of snaps and catching each of his three targets for 34 yards. He's back to a near-every-down role after opening the season in a timeshare with Gerald Everett, and while a knee injury may limit Kmet's practice participation this week, his ability to do some work Wednesday suggests he's on track to play this Sunday against the Panthers.
Jenkins (ribs) won't practice Wednesday, Chris Emma of 670TheScore.com reports. Jenkins left Sunday's win over the Rams due to a ribs injury, so it's no surprise that the 2021 second-round pick won't practice Wednesday. His participation Thursday and Friday will provide a better indication of his potential availability in Week 5, as the Bears host the Panthers.
Carter (ribs) will not practice Wednesday, Patrick Finley of the Chicago Sun-Times reports. Carter presumably suffered the injury in Sunday's win over the Rams, although that's not clear. The veteran wideout will work to return to the practice field Thursday or Friday, in an effort to suit up Week 5 against the Panthers.
Edwards accounted for nine tackles in the Bears' 24-18 win over the Rams on Sunday. After posting 23 tackles in the Bears' first two games, Edwards recorded just two tackles last week. The linebacker got back on track this week with nine stops, and he should still be considered a high-floor IDP option with ceiling potential at linebacker.
Dexter tallied a sack and three tackles in the Bears' 24-18 win over the Rams on Sunday. Not only has Dexter recorded at least three sacks in all but one game this season, but the defensive tackle now has three sacks on the season. As an interior lineman, Dexter has been a very productive IDP.
Sweat recorded three tackles and a sack in the Bears' 24-18 win over the Rams on Sunday. Sweat is averaging two tackles per game, but he now has sacks in back-to-back contests. Sweat remains a sack-dependent IDP with a low ceiling in terms of tackles.
