Bears' Charles Tillman, Lions' Reggie Bush active

Chicago Bears cornerback Charles Tillman is in the lineup against Calvin Johnson and the Detroit Lions.

Tillman was questionable for Sunday's game because of knee and groin injuries.

Lions running back Reggie Bush is active, as expected. He was listed as probable with an ailing left knee, a week after missing a game. Bush's return bumped Mikel Leshoure back to the inactive list.

Detroit wide receiver Patrick Edwards is inactive with a sprained right ankle. That hurts the Lions' depth chart in their first game without Nate Burleson since he broke his left arm in a car accident.

The Bears are starting defensive tackle Nate Collins in place of Henry Melton, who had a season-ending knee injury, and activated defensive tackle Landon Cohen.
