Patrick (toe) is questionable to return to Monday's game against the Patriots, Doug Kyed of Pro Football Focus reports.
Patrick was carted to the Bears' locker room after sustaining a toe injury at some point during the first quarter.

Bears' Lucas Patrick: Wearing cast, avoids injury report
Patrick (thumb) was not listed on Wednesday's injury report.
Patrick suffered a broken thumb during training camp, but that won't impact his ability to suit up for Sunday's season opener against the 49ers. Per Courtney Cronin of ESPN.com, Patrick has experience playing with a cast and doesn't anticipate his effectiveness to be impacted while wearing one. However, the starting center is still facing the task of protecting Justin Fields from one of the league's better defensive fronts Week 1.
