Signs new contract
Ogbongbemiga agreed to a two-year, $5 million deal with the Bears on Thursday, Mike Garafolo of NFL Network reports.
Analysis: An undrafted free agent back in 2021, the linebacker latched onto the NFL as a special teamer recording 36 total tackles and two fumble recoveries in three seasons with Los Angeles. The 26-year-old joined the Bears this past season and reprised a similar role playing a career-high 352 special teams snaps in 2024.

Out of concussion protocol
Ogbongbemiga (concussion) was left off the Bears' injury report Wednesday.
Analysis: Ogbongbemiga was thought to have sustained a concussion during the Bears' Week 2 loss to the Texans, but following Wednesday's injury report, it appears he's passed protocol. Expect the Oklahoma State product to remain one of Chicago's top rotational outside linebackers as the season progresses.

Being evaluated for concussion
Ogbongbemiga is being evaluated for a concussion in Sunday's contest with the Texans.
Analysis: Ogbongbemiga appears to have suffered a blow to the head, and his return to the game is now in question. The linebacker operates primarily as a special-teams option, so his absence shouldn't have a major impact on Chicago's defense.

Headed to Windy City
Ogbongbemiga signed a contract with the Bears on Thursday, Kevin Fishbain of The Athletic reports.
Analysis: Ogbongbemiga spent the first three seasons of his career with the Chargers after going undrafted out of Oklahoma State in 2021. The 25-year-old has primarily seen action on special teams, where he had four tackles and two fumble recoveries in 2023.

No injury designation for Week 16
Ogbongbemiga (hamstring) does not carry an injury designation into Saturday's contest against the Bills.
Analysis: Ogbongbemiga was a full participant in Thursday's practice after practicing in limited fashion in the two previous sessions. The veteran has played just five defensive snaps in the 12 games he's appeared in this season. Ogbongbemiga is on track to make his return after missing the last two games due to a hamstring injury. The 25-year-old should operate in depth role at linebacker and as a contributor on special teams.

Iffy for Week 14
Ogbongbemiga (hamstring) is listed as questionable ahead of Sunday's contest against the Broncos.

Dealing with hamstring injury
Ogbongbemiga didn't practice Wednesday due to a hamstring issue.
Analysis: The extent of Ogbongbemiga's injury isn't clear, but given his DNP on Wednesday and the nature of hamstring injuries, there's a chance he'll be unable to suit up Sunday against the Broncos. The third-year linebacker has played in all 12 of Los Angeles' games this season but has primarily seen work on special teams, logging just five defensive snaps, four of which came in Week 2 versus the Titans.

Career-high eight tackles
Ogbongbemiga registered eight tackles (three solo) in the 34-6 loss to the Ravens on Sunday.
Analysis: Pressed into action with Kenneth Murray (ankle) and Drue Tranquill (chest) sidelined, the undrafted rookie performed well enough from an IDP perspective. Ogbongbemiga played his way onto the 53-man roster after an exhilarating training camp, but with both Murray and Tranquill expected to return following the team's Week 7 bye, expect the Oklahoma product to shuttle back and forth between the practice squad and active roster most weeks.
