The Chicago Bears placed defensive back Kyler Gordon and offensive lineman Braxton Jones on injured reserve on Saturday.

The Bears (4-2) also signed defensive lineman Jonathan Ford to the active roster and elevated tight end Stephen Carlson and defensive back Dallis Flowers from the practice squad for Sunday's road game against the Baltimore Ravens (1-5).

Gordon, 25, is dealing with groin and calf injuries after missing the first four games with a hamstring injury. He has six tackles, one sack and one fumble recovery in two games (one start) this season.

Jones, 26, was limited on Wednesday but did not practice Thursday or Friday due to a knee injury. He has appeared in six games this season with four starts.

Gordon and Jones will both miss at least four games. They would be eligible to return in Week 12 against the visiting Pittsburgh Steelers.
