N'Keal Harry (ankle) placed on Bears' injured reserve

Chicago Bears wide receiver N'Keal Harry has been placed on the team's injured reserve.

What It Means:

Harry is dealing with a "severe high-ankle sprain," which carries a timetable of roughly 8 weeks. An injured reserve placement means the fourth-year pro will be forced to miss at least the first four weeks of the regular season, after which point he'll be eligible to return. This move will likely mean more opportunities for rookie receiver Velus Jones Jr., who is actually 7 months older than Harry.

Our models currently project Harry for 7.28 catches on 13.01 targets for 88.67 yards and 0.55 touchdowns.
