Punter Adam Podlesh is still a question mark for the regular-season opener against the Indianapolis Colts in just under two weeks, as the hip flexor on his non-punting leg is still a rehab work in progress.
"No one has ruled that out yet, it's still a possibility,'' Podlesh said on Tuesday of a Week 1 start. "We're going to be smart about how we can get myself back on the field.''
By smart Podlesh meant that he can do more than just punt the ball for the Bears and run off the field.
"The way [special teams coordinator] Dave Toub has talked about how we want guys that are going to cover, get down field, regardless of your position when you're out there, you're going to be giving your all, and if I'm not in a position where I can do that, I don't think they're going to put me in that position,'' Podlesh explained.
