David Montgomery “lightly” rolled his ankle on Wednesday, Bears coach Matt Nagy said, but the impact of his injury could be anything but.
The rookie running back sat out Thursday, one day after rolling his ankle during the team’s Wednesday practice.
“We wanted to keep him out and we’ll just keep an eye on him for here [Thursday] with how things go,” Nagy said.
Nagy, who typically puts out an optimistic tone about injuries, was noncommittal when asked whether Montgomery was in danger of missing Sunday night’s game against the Rams.
“I can’t say either way,” Nagy said.
