Bears Roster Moves and Injury Updates: Dieter Eiselen Is Back

On Friday afternoon, the Chicago Bears released their injury report. Unfortunately, rookie receiver Velus Jones Jr. did not practice again after missing Thursday's practice. 

The Bears' fullback, Khari Blasingame, did not practice on Thursday either due to personal reasons. But he returned to practice on Friday. Finally, offensive lineman, Riley Reiff, returned to practice in full after dealing with a shoulder injury.

The game status for the three aforementioned players is still uncertain. Although, it's looking even more doubtful now that Velus Jones Jr. misses his second straight game and his NFL debut is on hold for at least another week.
