TEAMS: Chicago Bears, Arizona Cardinals
Chicago Bears wide receiver Brandon Marshall is probable to
today against the Arizona Cardinals, but wide receiver Earl Bennett and
cornerback Tim Jennings are questionable to suit up.
Marshall was added to the Bears injury report on Thursday.
While his hamstring injury limited his participation in practice Thursday and
Friday, he is still considered probable to suit up against the Cardinals. He could
be somewhat limited, but considering the importance of today’s game for Chicago
it’s no surprise to see Marshall active.
Jennings, who’s recovering from a shoulder injury, was
limited at practice all week, as was Bennett (concussion). Beyond Jennings and
Bennett, linebacker Blake Costanzo (calf) and offensive lineman Jonathan Scott (hamstring)
are also questionable to play.
Linebacker Brian Urlacher (hamstring) has been ruled out
once again, while defensive lineman Henry Melton is considered doubtful after
being limited all week due to a chest injury. Everyone else on the Bears injury
report is probable to suit up.

Marshall fined $5,250 for throwing souvenir ball to fan
Per the NFL rules, a player can't throw a ball into the crowd because it can create a potential problem with fans fighting for the ball, much in the way fans go after foul balls in baseball.
The difference is, in baseball it's unintentional, and in the NFL, a player will be $5,250 lighter in the wallet for doing so.
He can however, hand a ball to a fan in the first...
Bears WR Devin Hester's Time in Chicago is Up
Perhaps no player personifies the Lovie Smith era in Chicago more than Bears wide receiver and kick returner Devin Hester. Hester has been brilliant at times, the best return man in the NFL. Hester may go down as the best of all-time, but as a wide receiver he's been an abject failure.
