Seahawks WR T.j. Houshmandzadeh returned to practice and is probable for Sunday's game, which means it's a virtual certainty he will play. Deion Branch, however, is questionable as he returns from a leg injury suffered the week before Seattle's season opener.

Branch has a hamstring injury, Mora said, which can be very tricky especially for a player that depends on speed and explosion like Branch does.

"I would hate for Deion to go out there because he is so anxious to play and prove his worth and make plays to help this team win that he restrains that thing," Mora said, "and he misses three or four more games."

“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

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.

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.
