CHICAGO -- Linebacker T.J. Edwards will not be back in the Chicago Bears' lineup for the remainder of 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 said Edwards suffered a fractured fibula.
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.
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.
Edwards was replaced by D'Marco Jackson on Saturday. 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 half a sack.
The Bears also lost rookie offensive tackle Ozzy Trapilo for the rest of the season, according to Johnson.
Trapilo ruptured his patellar tendon on the first play after the two-minute warning in the fourth quarter. He was replaced by Theo Benedet, who started seven games at left tackle this season but was supplanted by Trapilo in Week 12.
Benedet is expected to return as the Bears' starter in the divisional round. Fellow left tackle Braxton Jones (knee) was a full participant in practice last week but has not been activated off injured reserve.
