Chicago Bears linebacker Noah Sewell and rookie receiver Luther Burden III both sustained injuries during Sunday night’s loss at San Francisco, according to reports.

Sewell exited early with what is believed to be a torn Achilles and Burden sustained a quad injury on the final play of the 49ers’ 42-38 victory, per reports.

Sewell will have an MRI to confirm the initial diagnosis, according to NFL Network. Burden’s injury is not thought to be serious, per ESPN.

While Sewell was carted off the field, Burden attempted to walk to the sideline with assistance before being carted to the locker room.

Burden, 22, enjoyed the finest game of his debut campaign before the injury, setting season highs in targets (nine), catches (eight) and receiving yards (138) and catching a 35-yard touchdown pass in the second quarter. He had one fourth-quarter drop on a third-down play that would have earned a first down, but Chicago moved the chains on the next play.

Burden, who missed the previous week’s win against the Green Bay Packers with an ankle injury, will still undergo additional testing on Monday.

The 2025 second-round pick has 44 receptions for 617 yards and two touchdowns in 14 games (four starts).

The NFC North champion Bears (11-5) wrap up the regular season Sunday at home against the Detroit Lions (8-8).

Sewell, 23, is the younger brother is Detroit’s All-Pro right tackle Penei Sewell. Noah Sewell has recorded 59 tackles and one forced fumble in 13 games (nine starts) this season, his third with the Bears since being drafted in the fifth round in 2023.
