New York Daily News: The Jets and wide receiver Laveranues Coles
reached an agreement Wednesday on the restructuring of his
contract that allows the veteran to become an unrestricted free
agent. "I have had the pleasure of getting to know Laveranues
since he has entered the league in 2000," Jets general manager
Mike Tannenbaum said in a statement released by the team. "He is a
fierce competitor, a great teammate and a good friend who has
always given his best to the New York Jets. "I spoke with him
today and expressed my appreciation for his contributions both on
and off the field. This move will allow Laveranues to explore his
options, and we both agreed to keep the lines of communication
open."

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.
