Bears' Markus Wheaton will miss two weeks of camp after an appendectomy

Chicago Bears wide receiver Markus Wheaton will miss the next two weeks of training camp following his July 30 appendectomy.

What It Means:

Wheaton will be out for almost three weeks after the procedure, and even though he has a bigger contract that Victor Cruz and Kendall Wright, there are no guarantees for the Bears' receiver. Cameron Meredith and Kevin White are the better fantasy options this season.

Our models project Wheaton for 23.2 catches for 318.1 yards and 1.2 touchdowns in 2017.
