CHICAGO — The Bears got some good news regarding a pair of their best skill players. Receiver Keenan Allen and running back D’Andre Swift are available for Sunday’s game against the Minnesota Vikings.

Both players were designated as questionable on the team’s official injury report, but they were not among the inactives released on Sunday morning.

That’s a plus for Chicago but it’s not a shock, considering both players said they were optimistic about their playing status. Swift was dealing with a groin injury and Allen rolled his ankle during Friday’s practice but wasn’t overly concerned about the issue.

The only surprise was the fact that recently promoted receiver Collin Johnson was active over Tyler Scott, who should be considered a healthy scratch.

Here’s the full list of inactives:

  • Elijah Hicks
  • Tyler Scott
  • Ameer Speed
  • Ryan Bates
  • Kiran Amegadjie
  • Dominique Robinson
