Officially questionable Jones (knee), who remains on IR, practiced in full Thursday and is officially listed as questionable for Saturday's wild-card round matchup against the Packers.

Impact Jones appears on track to retake the field Saturday and provide depth at offensive tackle, but the Bears will first need to submit a transaction activating him from IR to the 53-man roster. Meanwhile, starting left tackle Ozzy Trapilo upgraded to full practice reps Thursday and does not carry an injury designation for Saturday's game.

Impact Jones has been sidelined for the Bears' last 11 games due to a knee injury sustained in the Week 7 win over the Saints, but he could return for the team's playoff run.
