ESPN: Pittsburgh Steelers receiver and Super Bowl MVP Santonio Holmes was arraigned Wednesday on a misdemeanor marijuana charge
stemming from a traffic stop. Holmes' attorney, Robert DelGreco
Jr., appeared at the brief hearing where charges were formally
presented. Holmes did not appear, nor was he required to. DelGreco
said he planned to challenge the constitutionality of the stop,
but did not elaborate. "I will be filing a suppression motion.
That will be a public record and we'll go from there," he said.
Pittsburgh police said they found three marijuana-filled cigars in
Holmes' car when he was pulled over Oct. 23. Holmes was stopped
because his car was similar to one they were looking for in a drug
sting. Holmes was cooperative and alerted officers to the drugs,
police said.

Per Bears head coach Matt Eberflus: Ryan Bates remains in the concussion protocol. Elijah Hicks (ankle) and D'Andre Swift (groin) won't practice.

Teven Jenkins will be limited.

Related Players: Roschon Johnson, Travis Homer

Fantasy Impact:

This is definitely a situation to keep an eye on, as Johnson would have a huge workload if Swift were to miss Week 12. Homer has three rush attempts and zero targets on the year.
