Jul 14, 2013

Bears WR Alshon Jeffery, the second-round draft pick from a year ago, flashed promise when he was on the field. Jeffery had 24 catches for 367 yards and three touchdowns but missed six games with knee and thumb injuries.

"I'll say this about Alshon: He's really invested," receivers coach Mike Groh said. "I have seen improvement in the very short time I have been able to work with him. He certainly has tremendous potential."

Fantasy Impact:

We rank Jeffrey 50th, but there is certainly some potential in a pass-heavy offense for him to finish higher than that. He's a late-round flier at this point with an ADP of about the 13th round.

“I will be playing on Sunday. Very excited, can’t pass up playing the Packers. I will be out there for sure.”

George Kittle says he’s good to go for Sunday

Fantasy Impact:

Kittle returns to a great matchup against a Packers defense that ranks 26th in TE aFPA. He should be fired up as a high-end TE1 once again.

Bears RB D'Andre Swift misses Wednesday practice

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.
