Jayden Daniels got hurt in Week 7 with a rib injury, and now he's playing in one of the later games on Sunday. There was some buzz that despite that injury, there was a possibility he could play this week.

So will he play in Week 8 against the Chicago Bears? Here's what we know as the clock ticks down to kickoff on Sunday.

He was a limited participant in practice on Friday, and listed as questionable for Sunday. And then there was the report from ESPN's Adam Schefter "the signs are strong" that he could play, although the team will see how he is in pregame warmups. So that's kind of huge.

We'll see if that's truly the case later, but it seems positive.
