Chicago Bears injury report: Kyle Fuller limited in practice CHICAGO, IL - NOVEMBER 16: By: Bryan Perez | 2 hours ago
For the first time since training camp opened this summer, the Chicago Bears are starting to resemble a healthy football team. Only cornerback Kyle Fuller was limited in practice today, something Bears fans aren’t used to hearing for quite a while.
Fuller underwent arthroscopic knee surgery on August 18 to remedy a nagging issue that had been slowing the third-year corner’s development this offseason. He had hoped to play in the opener, but the Bears opted to play Tracy Porter, Jacoby Glenn, Deiondre’ Hall and Bryce Callahan in the Week 1 loss to the Texans.
The Bears had nine players on the injury report last week, including the likes of Kyle Long and Kevin White. Both Long and White suited up against the Texans with mixed results.
Long played all 57 snaps and had one of the best overall performances on the team. White played 56 snaps and had the game’s biggest mental lapse when his poor route running led to a Jay Cutler interception.
Fuller hasn’t been ruled out for Week 2, and with an extra day of rehab coming before the game kicks off on Monday Night, his odds of playing are much greater than last week.
If Fuller cannot go, expect the combination of Porter, Glenn and Callahan to again receive the lion’s share of reps at cornerback.
Don't want to change the topic, but why is it a Jay cutler interception? Why not just say an interception?
Glad we're finally getting healthy and hope we can stay that way. It would be great to get Mcphee back too but that's a ways off yet.

I think some of the media have computers that are programmed so that every time the word "interception" appears Cutler's name automatically appears with it.
A recent suggestion by ESPN that ALL NFL interceptions be charged against Jay Cutler was defeated by a very narrow margin.

Fuller only Bears player still listed on injury reports so we're getting healthier.
Kyle Fuller only player on Bears injury report for second-straight day CHICAGO, IL - SEPTEMBER 20: By: Lorin Cox | 4 hours ago
Good news on the injury front has been hard to come by for the Chicago Bears over the last few months, but in the week leading up to their game against the Philadelphia Eagles, this team continues to get healthier.
For the second-straight day, cornerback Kyle Fuller was the only player on the Bears’ injury report as he recovers from his mid-August knee surgery, the team announced.
Fuller practiced on a limited basis once again, giving us very little indication as to whether or not he will start or even play on Monday night. He was limited in practice all of last week, so it’s hard to expect him to play until he gets back to full participation during the week.
If he is unable to go, Jacoby Glenn should get the start again on the outside with Bryce Callahan in the slot and Deiondre Hall working in on some situations.
Glenn did a pretty good job last week going primarily against Houston Texans wide receiver Will Fuller, and he’ll likely line up quite a bit against Eagles receiver Nelson Agholor on Monday.
As long as Glenn continues to play well, the Bears won’t try to rush Kyle Fuller back until he’s absolutely 100-percent ready. The young depth in the secondary has stepped up so far, and when Fuller returns, the team should be more comfortable with how they stand on the back end.
I am sure Fox has wood thinking about how great the new injury report system is.. Questionable 1-50% chance he is out. I am sure if a player has to pee during a walk through they are going to be listed as questionable.
hahaha I dont know about that, but I do know that Fox would like nothing more than that there was no Injury report at all
Well, I am sure that Fox's strategy of not letting the opponents know who will really be ready for the game was a big factor in our winning that game. oh... wait....
