Chicago Bears wide receiver Markus Wheaton is out indefinitely after undergoing surgery for his broken left pinky.
Head coach John Fox was unwilling to predict a timetable for Wheaton's return, so it's tough to gauge when he'll be back. The 26-year-old former third-round pick was competing with Kendall Wright for the third receiver job in Chicago.
numberFire's models project Wheaton to catch 23.2 passes for 318.1 yards and 1.19 touchdowns this season.
