With the release of Tanner Gentry back to the practice squad combined with Wheaton being a full participant, all signs are pointing towards Markus Wheaton being active in ready to play in Week Three. This game should mean a little something to Wheaton, as he gets to square off with the team that drafted him and just let him walk in the Pittsburgh Steelers.

This is could not come at a perfect time for the Bears. Wheaton is a player who stretches the field and can make contested catches on the sideline. That is something that the team has seriously been lacking over the past two weeks, With no respect for the deep threats, the majority of the field is shut down.
