Linebacker Lance Briggs, who missed the Seattle game with ankle troubles, is expected to suit up Sunday against the Redskins. Meanwhile cornerback Zack Bowman will miss at least one game, with a sprained right foot.
In other news, Chicago replaced unused DE Charles Grant, with DE Barry Turner a 2008 draftee, who spent some time on the practice squad. Turner has come close a couple times with the Bears, but it’s his first time on an active roster.
