CHICAGO -- Linebacker T.J. Edwards will not be back in the Chicago Bears lineup for the remainder the postseason.
Edwards needed to be helped off the field and taken to the locker room on a cart during the Bears' stunning 31-27 comeback win over the Green Bay Packers on Saturday night. Chicago coach Ben Johnson did not have a positive update on his condition after the victory.
In the second quarter, Edwards made a cutback and was injured away from the play on Chicago's second series on defense. He appeared to be in significant pain, and safety Jaquan Brisker immediately motioned for trainers to come off the sideline.
Johnson said that Edwards suffered a fractured fibula. The injury will keep Edwards out for the rest of the Bears' playoff run, which will continue next week with a home game in the divisional round.
Against the Packers, Edwards was replaced by D'Marco Jackson in the lineup. Jackson finished with five tackles in the win, including one for a loss.
Edwards, who has dealt with multiple injuries this season, started all 10 games he played in the regular season and had 67 tackles, an interception and a half-sack.
