The prognosis for their returns from knee injuries suffered in the Bears’ 23-20 loss Sunday to the Minnesota Vikings is unclear but the Bears, running back Matt Forte and receiver Eddie Royal all got some semblance of good news when it was determined that neither member of the offense will need any surgery for damage done.
“I think the feeling right now is, not exact because we’re not done with [evaluations], I don’t see it being season-ending on either one or even whether there, ACL, needs to be surgically repaired stuff moving forward,” coach John Fox said on Monday.
