Keenan Allen's heel injury has kept him sidelined for the past two games, but he has returned to practice and is expected to be available for the Chicago Bears' upcoming game against the Los Angeles Rams.
Why it matters: Allen's presence on the field adds a significant boost to the Bears' offense and provides rookie quarterback Justin Fields with a reliable target.
What's new: Allen practiced in full on Friday for the first time since Week 1, indicating progress in his recovery from the heel injury.
Yes, but: Despite returning to practice, Allen is still listed as questionable for the game against the Rams, leaving some uncertainty about his availability.
What to watch: Keep an eye on Allen's participation in practice leading up to the game and any updates from the team regarding his status.
The bottom line: If Allen is indeed able to play against the Rams, it will provide a much-needed boost to the Bears' passing game and increase their chances of success.
