The Chicago Bears ruled out wide receiver Devin Hester and offensive
lineman Chris Spencer yesterday, but the team expects running back matt Forte
(ankle), cornerback Charles Tillman (ankle) and Lance Briggs (ankle) all to
play Sunday against the Seattle Seahawks.

Briggs and Tillman each missed practice Wednesday due to
their ankle injuries, leading some to believe their status for this weekend’s
matchup against Seattle could be in question. However, the defensive stars
returned in a limited capacity Thursday and were full participants Friday.
Forte was limited due to his ankle injury Wednesday and
Thursday, but he also was a full participant at practice Friday. All three
players are listed as probable and are expected to play.
Other than Spencer and Hester, who have already been ruled
out, everyone on the Bears’ injury report is probable to play outside of wide
receiver Alshon Jeffery. After returning from injury last week, the rookie hurt
his knee and it caused him to miss practice all week and has him listed as
doubtful against the Seahawks.
