The Chicago Bears didn’t just lose to the Detroit Lions on Sunday. They also likely lost their left tackle for the rest of the season. Braxton Jones had already battled back from a concussion this week to play. Sadly, his misfortune took a drastic nosedive when he appeared to suffer a nasty lower leg injury that forced him to get carted off. The initial diagnosis was an ankle injury of some kind. That would end his year but would allow him enough recovery time to be ready for 2025.
That projection now could be in danger.
