Chicago’s offense faces a high-stakes setback. WR Luther Burden III is nursing a painful groin injury sustained during a high-intensity drill against Tyrique Stevenson. With a recovery window of two to five weeks, his Week 1 availability is officially in jeopardy.

- **The Goal:** A rapid recovery before September’s kickoff.
