Eagles WR Jordan Matthews is planning to work out with some of the best receivers in the NFL before the season starts.

"I'm going out to Atlanta for a while to go train," said Matthews. "I'm going to try to train around guys like A.J. [Green] and Calvin [Johnson] down with Tom Bender and them. So try and get some tutelage from some of those guys, some legends in the league right now."

While Matthews won't be expected to produce anywhere close to the level either of the Pro Bowl receivers do, it is certainly a great sign that he is deciding to spend his time away from the start of training camp working out and trying to learn from those ahead of him.

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

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.
