Chicago Bears running back Jordan Howard suffered a corneal abrasion during a walk-through Friday and did not travel with the team for Saturday's preseason clash against the Arizona Cardinals, according to the Chicago Tribune's Rich Campbell.

ESPN's Adam Schefter added the injury is "considered minor."

Not much went right for the Bears in 2016, but Howard was one of the clear bright spots. The 22-year-old rookie had the difficult task of taking over for Matt Forte, and excelled with 1,313 rushing yards and six touchdowns.
