49ers-Bears Injury Report: Patton, Lynch listed as questionable
Only two San Francisco 49ers players were listed on the team's official injury report today. The first is
WR Quinton Patton, who suffered a concussion on Sunday against the Miami Dolphins. Wearing a blue non-contact jersey, he has been limited in practice this week. Patton, who has started every game this season, has 31 receptions for 374 yards this year.
The second player is
OLB Aaron Lynch who is working through a high-ankle sprain that he suffered during Week 7 against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. He has missed eight games this season. The first four were at the start of the season and due to a suspension. Lynch, last season's best pass rusher, has just one sack during his three games played this year.
For the Chicago Bears,
QB Jay Cutler, who was placed on injured reserve this week, is the only player listed as out. Chicago has six players listed as questionable.
Below are the official injury reports for both the 49ers and the Bears, who meet up to play each other on Sunday in Chicago. Also included are Friday's participation reports. The 49ers held a walk through and the report is an estimation of what participation would have been for a full practice.
The team is traveling from Orlando, Florida to Chicago, Illinois today.

49ers' QB1? John Lynch calls Brock Purdy the "leader in the clubhouse"
San Francisco 49ers general manager John Lynch, speaking with reporters at the owners' meetings in Arizona on Monday morning, made it clear where Brock Purdy sits in the team's quarterback depth chart. Purdy, recovering from surgery on March 10, has earned the right to the top spot.
"I think Brock has earned the right with the way he played that he's probably the leader in the clubhouse at that," Lynch said. "I'll let [head coach] Kyle [Shanahan] make those kind of decisions, but I know, when we talk, I think Brock's probably earned that right to be the guy. If we were to line up, he'd probably take that first snap."
Of course, Lynch clarified that all quarterbacks—Purdy, Trey Lance, and Sam Darnold—will compete for the 49ers' starting job. However,
Would the 49ers trade Trey Lance? John Lynch responds
John Lynch made one thing very clear on Monday morning during the NFL owners' meetings in Arizona. The San Francisco 49ers like their current quarterback room, comprised of Brock Purdy, Trey Lance, and Sam Darnold.
Lynch clarified one more thing: If Purdy were completely healthy and ready to play come Week 1, he would be the starter. Of course, there is so much uncertainty surrounding Purdy's health.
On March 10, the quarterback underwent surgery to repair the tear of the ulnar collateral ligament (UCL) in his right elbow he suffered in the NFC Championship Game. His recovery is expected to go into September. Although, Lynch and the 49ers are hopeful the second-year
John Lynch explains 49ers' trade for kicker Zane Gonzalez
Last week, the San Francisco 49ers seemingly filled their kicker vacancy by trading for Zane Gonzalez, formerly of the Carolina Panthers. Robbie Gould, the team's kicker since 2017, remains a free agent. The 49ers undoubtedly wanted him back but could no longer afford to grant the 40-year-old the kind of money he sought.
Is Gonzalez the answer for the 49ers? He's an answer, but not necessarily the answer in Santa Clara.
"I think it's a move," 49ers general manager John Lynch told reporters on Monday during the NFL owners' meetings in Arizona.
The Panthers planned to release Gonzalez, prompting Lynch to call his Panthers counterpart,
