Bears' Deonte Thompson: Misses practice with an ankle problem

Thompson missed practice Saturday with an ankle "problem", Jeff Dickerson of ESPN.com reports.

Analysis:

Thompson left Thursday's preseason game with a walking boot on his left foot, and this report clarifies that he's dealing specifically with an ankle injury. He's currently in line to return kickoffs for the Bears, while also playing in a reserve role at wide receiver. He has three weeks to insure he's healthy enough to be available for Week 1.
