4 years agoChicago Bears wide receiver Darnell Mooney (ankle) and linebacker Roquan Smith (elbow) have been ruled out ahead of Sunday's wild-card game against the New Orleans Saints. With Mooney out, expect to see more of Anthony Miller, who last had more than two receptions back in Week 13. This is obviously a big loss for the Bears, as Mooney had established himself as a top secondary receiver for this team. On the other side of the ball, not having Smith will hurt Chicago's run defense, which could set up a big game for Saints running back Alvin Kamara if he's able to come off the COVID-19 list in time to play. No. 1 receiver Allen Robinson II should see his fair share of targets and remains a strong WR1 play for Chicago.--Justin Carter - RotoBaller
