Chicago Bears linebacker T.J. Edwards was removed from the game Saturday night after suffering a non-contact leg injury, and subsequent X-rays revealed a broken fibula. Edwards will undergo surgery on his leg.
The severity of the injury prompted coach Ben Johnson to caution that the Bears would have the greatest comeback in their history if they could overcome the setback, however the team went on to win the game 17-14 against their long-standing rival Green Bay Packers.
Edwards was unable to finish the second quarter after a sudden collapse. He had been one of the steady contributors for the Bears this season when healthy but suffered from several injuries in the past year.
The team's victory marked a surprise, with many expecting an easy win by the Packers given their experience and superior talent. However, quarterback Caleb Williams led his team to success, securing key drives that ultimately secured the win.

T.J. Edwards is like a total game-changer for the Bears and now he's out with a broken fibula... that's rough 
. But you know what's even crazier? They managed to pull off an epic comeback win against those Packers 
I mean, Caleb Williams stepped up big time and led his team to victory 
. It just goes to show that when you've got the right players on your team, anything is possible... of course, we all know Edwards' injury was a major blow 
. Still, what a thrilling game! 
. And what's with coach Johnson trying to spin this? I mean, sure, the Bears won and all, but that's just a fluke. Don't pretend like Edwards' injury wasn't a huge factor in the game 
. And can we talk about how ridiculous it is that Edwards was even playing with an injury in the first place? Like, what were the Bears thinking?! 
The fact that the Bears came back from that huge setback to beat their rivals is just incredible. I'm not surprised they did it though, Caleb Williams has been on fire lately 
. Edwards might be out for a while, but this win is definitely gonna give his team some momentum 
... broken fibula is no joke 
. but omg what a comeback win for the Bears!!! 
it's like they just showed everyone that even when things don't go as planned, you can still get the job done 
i'm so hyped for him and the team... fingers crossed T.J. recovers quickly and gets back to being his awesome self soon 
... but what's even more interesting is how the Bears' victory was shaped by T.J. Edwards' injury... I mean, you can't deny the irony of him getting hurt and still managing to help his team win 
... just like how life can take unexpected turns, and sometimes, those 'setbacks' become stepping stones to something greater 
. But let's not forget, the Packers are still a pretty good team... this win doesn't exactly mean they're unstoppable 
.
