LAKE FOREST, Ill. – The Chicago Bears are expecting the return of a key offensive player in time for Christmas.
Over a month removed from landing on injured reserve with a hip injury sustained against the Detroit Lions, Bears running back Khalil Herbert is eligible to return ahead of Chicago’s Dec. 24 matchup with the Buffalo Bills.
“We’re excited about getting him back next week,” coach Matt Eberflus said. “He’s been hitting his max speeds, and his jumps look good and his power in his legs look great. So we’re excited for that.
