Bears without Hurd, Wootton; McClure inactive for Falcons

CHICAGO -- Bears wide receiver Sam Hurd and defensive end Corey Wootton were inactive for Sunday's season opener against the Atlanta Falcons.

Hurd has been bothered by an ankle injury. Wootton was injured while covering the opening kickoff in the first preseason game against the Buffalo Bills and underwent arthroscopic surgery on his right knee. Both players were listed as questionable.

The Bears already had ruled out running back Marion Barber because of a calf injury.

Anthony Adams (calf) was active, but Matt Toeaina started at nose tackle in his place.

The Falcons were missing center Todd McClure and defensive tackle Corey Peters, who had been ruled out because of knee injuries.
