Chicago Tribune: Bears S Mike Brown, WR Marty Booker and tight end
Desmond Clark returned to practice Thursday in limited duty as the
Bears prepared for Sunday night's game at Minnesota. All three
missed Wednesday's practice while nursing injuries: Brown a
bruised calf, Booker a bruised left knee and Clark a sprained
right knee. None of the injuries is as serious as cornerback
Nathan Vasher's, whose season is expected to be over after he
fractured his right hand and reinjured his thumb against the Rams.
Corey Graham will replace him. End Adewale Ogunleye was asked if
the loss of Vasher puts more pressure on the defensive line to
excel. "I think so," Ogunleye said. "I think any game of this
magnitude starts with the guys up front. [It's] even of more
importance with a guy like Nathan Vasher out. But we do have a lot
of confidence in Corey Graham."
