Bears head coach Ben Johnson said after Saturday's 31-27 wild-card win over the Packers that Edwards sustained a fractured fibula during the contest, and the linebacker isn't expected to play again during Chicago's postseason run, Jason Lieser of the Chicago Sun-Times reports.

Edwards was carted off the field with an air cast on his leg after suffering the injury during the first half of Saturday's game. Considering the nature of the issue, it's no surprise that he'll almost certainly be unable to return to action no matter how far Chicago advances in the playoffs. With Noah Sewell (Achilles) landing on injured list in late December and also done for the campaign, the Bears will likely turn to D'Marco Jackson or Amen Ogbongbemiga to serve as their primary defensive signal-caller for the rest of the postseason.
