The Facts:
Chicago Bears running back Matt Forte sustained an ankle injury early in the second half of Sunday's Week 12 win over the Minnesota Vikings. Prior to the injury, Forte had 14 carries for 42 yards and two catches for four yards. He also spent time on the bench after a first quarter fumble. While the Bears haven't released any details about Forte's condition, the injury was to the same ankle he missed time on earlier in the season. Michael Bush replaced Forte in the Chicago backfield.

Fantasy Football Diehards Line:
Fantasy owners felt better starting Forte this week with Jay Cutler back under center. Unfortunately, Forte fumbled early and was replaced by Bush for period of time before he returned to the field. Bush has seen little action since the Bears returned from their bye, but he finished the with 21 carries for 60 yards and two touchdowns. He'll be a hot waiver wire pickup heading into Week 13 if Forte were to miss time. Check back for an update on Forte's condition and outlook for the week ahead.
