Safety Antrel Rolle (knee) expected to miss Packers game

LAKE FOREST, Ill. – A knee injury is expected to keep veteran safety Antrel Rolle sidelined when the Bears play Green Bay Thanksgiving night.

Bears defensive coordinator Vic Fangio said the club is preparing Chris Prosinski to make his second consecutive start in place of Rolle, who injured his knee at practice late last week.

An 11-year veteran, Rolle played in ever regular season game from 2010-14 before he signed with Chicago in the offseason.

Rolle missed two games earlier in the year because of a high ankle sprain.

In other injury news, running back Matt Forte (knee), wide receiver Alshon Jeffery (groin), linebacker Pernell McPhee (knee) and tight end Martellus Bennett (ribs) were limited in Tuesday’s light workout.
