Forte? Injured?

From cbs sports,

Chicago running back Matt Forte was bent back awkwardly at the end of an 11-yard run on the Bears' winning drive Week 3 against the Seahawks. He spent the last few plays running in place on the sideline, trying to get loose, as Adrian Peterson replaced him. Forte, who had 66 yards on 21 carries as he continues to grind through a slow opening month, limped some in the locker room following an extended, postgame treatment session. Forte, who also had a team-high six receptions for 40 yards, had a wrap on his left leg.

Analysis: The Bears chose not to elaborate on Forte's injury after the game, so they are probably waiting to run some tests before divulging any further information. If this injury turns out to be bad, it will just add further insult to any already disappointing start for Forte, who is still searching for his first touchdown.

Forte has officially screwed me in every way possible. Still haven't heard anything about his injury. I am assuming it is not serious

An update from cbs sports on Forte for this weeks game,

The Chicago Tribune reports Bears RB Matt Forte feels good coming into Week 4 against the Lions. Forte said he feels OK for the Lions game after leaving his Week 3 game at Seattle. Forte is 29th in the league in rushing with 150 yards on 59 carries through three games. He is the only back among the Top 30 averaging less than 3.0 yards per carry with a 2.6 average. And this is the same player who compiled 304 yards over his first three games as a rookie last season.

More conflicting reports, lol.

From cbssports.com,

The Bears only gave RB Matt Forte limited reps on Wednesday as he deals with a knee injury likely suffered late in Week 3 against the Seahawks. Forte and the Bears will host the Lions in Week 4, a team the running back beat up last year with 192 total yards and a touchdown in each meeting.
