The only real Bears injury concern coming out of the bye week is reserve linebacker Noah Sewell.

Sewell had a knee injury before the game against the first game against Detroit and did not play the last two games. He was able to practice on Wednesday but only on a limited basis.

The Bears had three players who had been injury concerns coming out of their last game in Week 12 but all appear over their issues.

Cornerback Tyrique Stevenson had a full Wednesday practice after an ankle injury kept him out of the game against Minnesota.

Tackle Larry Borom had been out of the last game due to illness and running back D'Onta Foreman had left the Week 11 game with Detroit, then missed the Vikings game due to an ankle injury. However, both Borom and Foreman went through full Wednesday practices.

Foreman had 14 yards on six carries against Detroit when he was injured and went out. He had come into the game with 80 or more yards rushing in three of his previous four games.

So Foreman's return will make for an interesting Bears decision come game day in terms of playing time for their backs. Khalil Herbert returned two games ago from an ankle injury and Roschon Johnson did most of the work in the last game.

The big injury news is the announcement the Lions will be without defensive tackle Alim McNeill, who went on injured reserve with a knee sprain. He has been important in stopping the run and providing an inside push for Detroit.
