San Francisco 49ers
LB Aaron Lynch will miss his ninth game of the season and his fifth straight when the team kicks off against the Bears in Chicago.
Lynch has played in just three games this season and has just a single sack in those games. Considered to be last year's best pass rusher, Lynch missed the first four games of the season for violating the NFL's policy on substances of abuse.
His latest string of missed games has been due to a high-ankle sprain that he suffered on October 23 against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. Once again,
Eli Harold will start in Lynch's place.
Starting
WR Quinton Patton has been cleared from the concussion protocol and is active in Chicago.
