Sidelined at practice
Hicks (illness) was a non-participant during Thursday's practice.
Analysis: It's unclear if this is a COVID-19-related illness, but the fact that he was forced to miss practice isn't a great sign. Hicks has been a strong contributor for the Bears this season, racking up 23 tackles (16 solo) and 3.5 sacks across six games. If the veteran was forced to miss Week 7 against the Rams, Brent Urban and Mario Edwards would be in line for an uptick in snaps.

Continues hot streak
Hicks posted 1.5 sacks and four tackles in Chicago's 30-26 win over the Falcons on Sunday.
Analysis: For the third week in a row, Hicks has recorded a sack while averaging four tackles. Unless he begins to cool off, he'll continue to be an outstanding IDP option at the defensive end position.

Shakes off illness
Hicks (illness) was a full participant in Friday's practice and will play Sunday versus the Giants.
Analysis: Hicks missed Thursday's practice with an illness but quickly returned to the team. Expect the veteran DE to log a full workload Sunday, looking to shut down Saquon Barkley and pressure Daniel Jones into mistakes. In Week 1, Hicks logged five tackles (four solo) and a sack against the Lions.

Falls ill Thursday
Hicks (illness) didn't suit up in Thursday's practice.
Analysis: It's unclear how serious the illness is for Hicks, but it was enough to force him to miss valuable practice time. If the illness sidelines Hicks for Sunday's game against the Giants, Mario Edwards or Brent Urban would both be in line for an uptick in snaps.

Notches sack in opener
Hicks recorded a sack and four tackles in Chicago's 27-23 victory over the Lions on Sunday.
Analysis: After missing most of the 2019 season with an elbow injury, Hicks returned to form by being productive as both a tackler and pass rusher. As long as he stays healthy, he'll likely continue to be one of the steadiest defensive line options in the league.

Cleared for practice
Hicks (quadriceps) wasn't listed on the team's injury report for Wednesday's practice.
Analysis: Hicks missed most of the 2019 season due to an elbow injury, and his quadriceps injury popped up during training camp. Now healthy, the veteran is expected to assume a starting role in the defense, coming off 65 tackles (51 solo) and 8.5 sacks across 21 games the past two seasons.

No practice Friday
Head coach Matt Nagy said Hicks didn't practice Friday because of a quadriceps injury, Adam Jahns of The Athletic reports.
Analysis: Hicks lost most of the 2019 season due to an elbow injury, but he's expected to contribute in a major way this year. In his four seasons in Chicago, Hicks posted 173 tackles, 24 sacks and seven pass breakups over 53 games. While Hicks recovers, expect Brent Urban and Roy Robertson-Harris to rotate in on the first-team defense.

Bounceback campaign expected
Defensive coordinator Chuck Pagano said that Hicks (elbow) is "really eager to get back on the field and be with his brothers out there competing and playing," Larry Mayer of the Bears' official site reports.
Analysis: Pagano anticipates having a fully healthy Hicks to utilize in 2020, after the defensive end was limited to just five games last year and noticably hampered when available. Prior to 2019's injury-riddled campaign, Hicks had put together three straight seasons with at least seven sacks. If the 30-year-old is indeed able to avoid any setbacks in his recovery, he'll be primed to make an impact as a key member of Chicago's defensive line for 2020.

Missing another contest
Hicks (elbow) is ruled out for Sunday's regular-season finale against the Vikings.
Analysis: Hicks' elbow injury will cause him to miss his 10th game in the last 11 weeks. With the Bears already eliminated from postseason contention, the veteran defensive end will turn his attention toward getting fully healthy for the 2020 season.

Remains sidelined
Hicks (elbow) was listed as a non-participant on Wednesday's estimated injury report, Andrew Krammer of the Minneapolis Star Tribune reports.
Analysis: Hicks continues to battle an elbow injury that's cost him nine of the last 10 games. There's a good chance he won't be able to suit up for Sunday's season finale against the Vikings, especially without Chicago having very much to play for at this stage.

Won't play Sunday
Hicks (elbow) has been downgraded to out for Sunday's game against the Chiefs.
Analysis: Hicks returned from injured reserve last week and played 36 snaps versus the Packers, but the elbow injury remains bothersome. The 30-year-old doesn't believe he'll require offseason surgery, but the team should remain cautious down the stretch since it is already eliminated from playoff contention.

Continues battling elbow injury
Hicks (elbow) is questionable for Sunday night's game against the Chiefs.
Analysis: The 30-year-old returned from injured reserve to play the Packers in Week 15, but he continues to battle the elbow injury. According to Dan Wiederer of the Chicago Tribune, Hicks doesn't expect he'll need offseason surgery, but it would make sense for the Bears to remain cautious if the injury is still problematic, especially since they are already eliminated from the playoffs.

Officially activated
The Bears activated Hicks (elbow) from injured reserve Saturday, Chris Mortensen of ESPN reports.
Analysis: Hicks will take the field Sunday versus the Packers for the first time since Week 5. It is unclear if the Bears will play him his usual workload as the starting defensive end out the gate or work him into the swing of things. Either way, the veteran defensive lineman will be back in the trenches.

Progressing toward return
Hicks (elbow) needs to be activated to the 53-man roster by 4 P.M. ET on Saturday in order to play Sunday against the Packers, Rich Campbell of the Chicago Tribune reports.
Analysis: Hicks returned to practice at the start of December, and coach Matt Nagy said of Hicks Friday, "We like what we're seeing with him" at practice. The team doesn't list Hicks' practice participation since he's not on the 53-man roster, but it appears there's a chance the 30-year-old returns this weekend.

Resumes practicing Sunday
Hicks (elbow) was able to practice Sunday, Mark Potash of the Chicago Sun-Times reports.
Analysis: Hicks' ability to participate in a light practice bodes well for his ability to potentially return from IR when he's eligible to do so in Week 15 against the Packers. Whether he's able to ramp up activity in the two weeks between now and then should ultimately determine whether Hicks can rejoin his teammates on the field this season.

Nearing return to practice
Coach Matt Nagy said it's the "goal" to have Hicks (elbow) return to practice next week, Rich Campbell of the Chicago Tribune reports.
Analysis: Hicks moved to injured reserve in mid-October due to the elbow injury, but he may have a chance to play again this season. The 30-year-old is eligible to return Week 15 against the Packers, so participating in practice next week would provide him a couple weeks of practice reps before his potential return.
