Bears G Teven Jenkins (ankle) sits out practice

Chicago Bears guard Teven Jenkins sat out practice on Thursday as the team prepares to face the Jacksonville Jaguars this weekend in London.

Jenkins was downgraded after being listed as a limited participant in practice on Wednesday because of an ankle injury. He has started all five games this season and recovered a fumble for the Bears (3-2).

Jenkins was not alone as defensive lineman Zacch Pickens (groin) and defensive backs Jaquan Brisker (concussion) and Terell Smith (hip) each sat out their second consecutive practice session. Veteran tight end Marcedes Lewis also sat out on Thursday, one day after he missed that session due to rest.

Cornerback Kyler Gordon was upgraded from limited to a full participant in practice as he deals with a heel injury. Defensive back Tyrique Stevenson was added as a limited participant with a calf injury.
