Won't require surgery
Lynch (elbow) said he won't require offseason surgery, Chris Emma of 670 The Score Chicago reports.
ANALYSIS
Lynch sprained his right elbow in mid-December and ultimately sat out the final three games of the Bears' season, including the team's playoff loss to Philadelphia. However, the notion that Lynch won't require surgery suggests the linebacker isn't dealing with a long-term injury. That's good news for Lynch, who is scheduled to become an unrestricted free agent at the end of the league year.

The Combine is about to hit full speed, but here's one last look at the landscape before the shakeups happen.
The Bears will almost certainly look to upgrade their defensive line after they were dismantled by opposing running backs and struggled to generate much pass rush in 2013.

The pass-rush specialist was expected to start this season after posting 38 tackles and 6.5 sacks in a limited role last year. A four-game suspension for abusing the league's substance abuse policy has derailed that plan. It is unclear what the 49ers' linebacker situation will look like when he returns in week 5, but he should still be used in a role that will allow him to accrue sacks down the stretch.
