The Bears opened Sunday’s game with the Giants without wide receiver Alshon Jeffery.

They’ll end it without tight end Zach Miller as well. Miller has been ruled out for the remainder of the game after leaving the field just before halftime with a right foot injury. Giants defensive end Jason Pierre-Paul stepped on Miller’s foot during a play and Miller went to the sideline immediately after it ended.

Miller had three catches for 61 yards in the first half and scored the first points of the game on a 19-yard pass from Jay Cutler. That helped them build a 16-6 lead, but it has disappeared.

The Giants got the ball near midfield to start the second half thanks to a great kickoff return by Dwayne Harris and drove 56 yards for a touchdown by tight end Will Tye to tie the score at 16 early in the third quarter.
