Bears' Keenan Allen: Won't practice Wednesday
Chicago Bears head coach Matt Eberflus said that Keenan Allen (heel) will not participate in practice Wednesday, Chris Emma of 670TheScore.com reports.Allen missed all three of Chicago's official practice sessions last week, resulting in him sitting out the Bears' 19-13 loss to the Texans. Eberflus said the team is "trying to get [Allen] back on the grass as soon as we can," but at this point, the veteran wideout may be trending in the wrong direction for Sunday's game versus the Colts. If Allen is forced to miss a second straight game, DeAndre Carter, Tyler Scott and Collin Johnson will once again be candidates to see increased roles behind No. 1 wideout DJ Moore and rookie first-round pick Rome Odunze.

Bears' Keenan Allen: Not playing Sunday
Keenan Allen (heel) is listed as inactive Sunday in Houston.Allen was able to play through his heel injury Week 1 against the Titans, but the issue capped him to one limited practice session (Friday) this past week, leaving him questionable heading into the weekend. Earlier Sunday, though, Jay Glazer of Fox Sports reported Allen was trending more toward the doubtful side of the equation, and the veteran wideout indeed won't be available Week 2. DJ Moore remains the Chicago Bears' No. 1 option at the position, with Rome Odunze (knee), DeAndre Carter, Tyler Scott and Collin Johnson the other WRs available for QB Caleb Williams on Sunday.

Bears' Keenan Allen: Looking unlikely against Texans
Keenan Allen (heel), who is listed as questionable for Sunday's matchup with the Texans, is seen as more leaning to doubtful for the the 8:20 p.m. ET kickoff, Jay Glazer of Fox Sports reports.Allen took a questionable tag into the weekend after he sat out practices Wednesday and Thursday on account of the heel injury before returning to the field Friday as a limited participant. The veteran wideout is scheduled to go through a pregame workout before the Chicago Bears make a call on his availability when the team releases its inactive list 90 minutes before kickoff. Elsewhere in the Bears' receiving corps, Rome Odunze (knee) is also listed as questionable but appears to have stronger odds than Allen of playing.

Bears' Keenan Allen: Viewed as game-time decision
Keenan Allen (heel), who is listed as questionable for Sunday's matchup with the Texans, is viewed as a game-time decision leading up to the 8:20 p.m. ET kickoff, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.Allen took a questionable tag into the weekend after he sat out practices Wednesday and Thursday on account of the heel injury before returning to the field Friday as a limited participant. The veteran wideout is scheduled to go through a pregame workout before the Chicago Bears make a call on his availability when the team releases its inactive list 90 minutes before kickoff. Even if Allen is active, Schefter cautions that the 32-year-old could play more sparingly than usual. Elsewhere in the Bears' receiving corps, Rome Odunze (knee) is also listed as questionable but appears to have stronger odds than Allen of playing.

Bears' Keenan Allen: No practice, listed as questionable
Keenan Allen (heel) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game at Houston after missing another practice Friday.Fellow wideout Rome Odunze (knee) returned to practice Friday as a limited participant and also is listed as questionable. Allen's absences from Wednesday through Friday aren't the best sign, but the Chicago Bears at least are leaving the door open ahead of a 8:20 p.m. ET kickoff Sunday night. Allen dealt with the heel injury for much of August and aggravated it in the fourth quarter of a Week 1 win over the Titans.

Bears' Keenan Allen: Misses practice Thursday
Keenan Allen (heel) didn't take part in Thursday's practice.Allen was able to suit up Week 1 against the Titans after going limited, limited and full on the first three practice reports of the season due to a heel injury. He's kicked off this week with back-to-back absences, but coach Matt Eberflus said Wednesday that the veteran wide receiver was getting the day off for rest purposes, per Courtney Cronin of ESPN.com. Position mate Rome Odunze (knee) also hasn't practiced this week, so Friday's report may be telling for the duo's odds to suit up Sunday in Houston.

Bears' Keenan Allen: Resting heel injury Wednesday
Chicago Bears head coach Matt Eberflus said that Keenan Allen will receive Wednesday's practice off to manage a heel injury, Courtney Cronin of ESPN.com reports.Allen appears to still be dealing with the heel injury he initially picked up mid-August. He briefly went into the injury tent during the Bears' win over the Titans in Week 1, though he was able to finish out the contest. Though Allen will appear on the Bears' initial Week 2 injury report, Eberflus' characterization of the receiver's absence Wednesday as a rest day suggests that Allen's status for Sunday's game against the Texans isn't in much jeopardy. Meanwhile, rookie wideout Rome Odunze (knee) is considered day-to-day due to an MCL sprain and appears far less likely than Allen to play Week 2.

Bears' Keenan Allen: Top target in Chicago
Keenan Allen recorded four receptions on 11 targets for 29 yards in Sunday's 24-17 win over the Titans.Like the entire Chicago offense, Allen disappointed in Week 1. He was extremely inefficient, averaging only 2.6 yards per target with a long reception of nine yards. Positively, Allen was the most-targeted option of the Chicago Bears' three top receivers, so when Caleb Williams presumably improves, Allen should be a significant beneficiary.

Bears' Keenan Allen: Active in Week 1
Keenan Allen (heel) is listed as active Sunday against the Titans.On Aug. 28, Chicago Bears GM Ryan Poles relayed to Courtney Cronin of ESPN.com that Allen was dealing with discomfort in his foot, but the expectation at the time was that the veteran wide receiver would be available Week 1. Allen kicked off this week with back-to-back limited showings due to a listed heel injury, but despite progressing to a full session Friday, he entered the weekend as questionable to play Sunday. Now that his status is confirmed, he'll serve as one of Chicago's top pass catchers for rookie QB Caleb Williams along with fellow WRs DJ Moore and Rome Odunze and TE Cole Kmet.

Bears' Keenan Allen: Likely to suit up Sunday
Keenan Allen (heel) remains listed as questionable but is expected to play in Sunday's game against Tennessee, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.Chicago Bears head coach Matt Eberflus has already said that he expects the veteran wideout to make his team debut Sunday, which comes as little surprise after Allen logged a full practice Friday following a pair of limited sessions to begin the week. With DJ Moore lined up to be Chicago's No. 1 wideout and promising rookie Rome Odunze also in the fold, Allen will look to establish a rapport with No. 1 overall pick Caleb Williams in what will be the USC product's NFL debut.
