Jordan Howard now admits to Achilles' issue in Bears' loss

Chicago Bears running back Jordan Howard now says he had a problem with his Achilles in Sunday's Week 10 loss to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.

What It Means:

Howard claimed he "ain't suffer nothing" earlier in the week, but now admits there was a minor issue that limited him in the second half on Sunday. "I was just tight early in the second half," Howard said. "Then I injured my Achilles' a little bit at the end. I’m good now." He's not on the Bears' injury report heading into a Week 11 matchup with the New York Giants.
