Around the NFC North: Week 7

Here's a look around the NFC North heading into week 7 of the regular season.

Chicago Bears

The Bears enjoyed a bye week after getting home from their London loss to the Oakland Raiders.

-The Bears would probably have liked to have had a quiet bye week in terms of news, but that didn't happen. Yesterday the team announced it placed pro bowl defensive tackle Akiem Hicks on injured reserve with an elbow injury. It is possible Hicks would be able to return later this season, but the soonest he'd be allowed to do so is Week 15, when the Packers and Bears meet for the second time this season.
