First sack of 2024 Sweat tallied a sack and four tackles in the Bears' 21-16 loss to the Colts on Sunday.

Impact After a strong finish to the 2023 season when Sweat had six sacks in seven games, it took the veteran pass rusher three games to collect his first sack of the season. With just six tackles on the season, Sweat will need to heat up in the sack column to have strong IDP value.

Slated to play Sunday Sweat (elbow) doesn't carry an injury designation into Sunday's game against the Colts and is expected to play.

Impact Sweat was limited in practice Wednesday and Thursday but was upgraded to full Friday and is set to go versus Indy. The 28-year-old is still looking for his first sack of the season after totaling a career-best 12.5 of them with the Commanders and Bears last season.

Limited Wednesday Sweat (elbow) was a limited participant in Wednesday's practice.

Impact Chicago's star edge rusher now appears to be dealing with an elbow injury after playing through a toe issue in the Bears' Week 2 loss. Sweat's practice participation Thursday and Friday will likely provide a better indication of his availability for the Bears' Week 3 matchup with the Colts.

Active Sunday Sweat (toe) is active for Sunday's game against the Titans.

Impact The Pro Bowl defensive end was a limited participant in Wednesday's practice before being elevated to full participant by Friday. Sweat recorded 12.5 sacks in 2023 between his time with the Commanders and Bears, and made his first Pro Bowl. He's played every regular-season game in all but one of his seasons.

Full go Friday Sweat (toe) was a full participant in Friday's practice.

Impact Despite Sweat's full participation in Friday's practice, he's listed as questionable for Sunday's Week 1 contest against the Titans. If Chicago's star edge rusher is unable to suit up, expect Darrell Taylor (foot) or Austin Booker to step in and work with the Bears' first-team defense.

Limited with toe injury Sweat was a limited participant in Wednesday's practice session due to a toe injury.

Impact Given he was able to suit up for practice and participate in some drills, Sweat should be good to go for the Bears' regular-season opener against the Titans on Sunday. The 2019 first-round pick was acquired by the Bears in a trade with the Commanders before last year's trade deadline. Over his nine regular-season games with Chicago last season, Sweat posted 25 tackles (17 solo), including 6.0 sacks, three passes defended and one forced fumble.

Enters first full year in Chicago Sweat had a career year in 2023 with 12.5 sacks and will look to build on that total after a full offseason with the Bears.

Impact Sweat was sent from Washington to Chicago in a mid-season trade last year, and he was a dominant pass rusher the entire season. The Bears signed their pass rusher through 2027, and Sweat should remain an excellent IDP in the emerging Chicago defense led by excellent defensive coach Matt Eberflus.
