Shea McClellin has been cleared to resume practicing

Found November 22, 2012 on NFL Draft Zone: Yardbarker Blogger Network
PLAYERS: Shea McClellin,  Julius Peppers,  Brian Urlacher
TEAMS: Chicago Bears
Bears rookie DE Shea McClellin’s (concussion) has been cleared to resume practicing. He’ll be ready to roll for Sunday’s game against the Vikings. Chicago’s first-round pick has nine tackles and 2.5 sacks through his first nine career games. After getting drafted by Chicago, the Chicago Sun-Times stated that McClellin will play opposite Julius Peppers at left defensive end, with Chicago Sun-Times writer Sean Jensen saying that McClellin could replace middle-linebacker Brian Urlacher in the event that he leaves the team or retires. He better step it up if they expect him to replace either Peppers or Urlacher.
