Martellus Bennett: Ruled out for Thursday's contest

Bennett (ribs) was ruled out for Thursday's game at Green Bay.

Analysis:

Bennett turned in a limited practice Tuesday, likely in order to test out his injured ribs, but the Bears will opt for caution and rest the tight end on a short week. In his stead, Zach Miller should have an ample workload, which could expand further if Alshon Jeffery (groin/shoulder) and Matt Forte (knee) are eventually ruled out.
