Mike Neal (shoulder) also is ready to take on a normal workload. Minus C.J. Wilson, the plan is to rotate Mike Daniels and Jerel Worthy at defensive end in the base and use Neal in sub packages.

"But Mike can play in there," said Mike Trgovac, who coaches the defensive line. "I'll have to get a feel whether his shoulder can take the pounding of the (3-4) stuff. If he says, ‘Coach, I’m fine,’ I’ll mix him in there as well."

Wilson suffered what he said was a pulled muscle near his left knee Nov. 25 and has been out since. He said it was the most time he has missed due to injury since he began playing football at age 9.

Cornerbacks coach Joe Whitt made it a point to watch video of Bears wide receiver Brandon Marshall’s news conference Wednesday in which he ranted about remarks made by some players in Green Bay and vowed to play his very best game.

Whitt said he took no offense to what Marshall said.

“This is the NFL,” said Whitt. “Hopefully, everybody plays their best every week. That is our mind-set.

“We respect that he gave his best last game and we’re expecting to get his best this game. Nothing has changed.”

Cornerbacks Sam Shields and Tramon Williams will play outside and Casey Hayward will play inside in nickel and dime, according to Whitt. No decision was made on the starter at right cornerback in the 3-4.
