That's much different than the previously reported timeline that he'd be out eight to 10 weeks. Dan Wiederer and Mark Grote react to the news. When did the Bears know this was the actual timeline? And why didn't they get the news out sooner? In other injury news, it sounds like tackle Ozzy Trapilo could return sooner from his knee injury than thought. But exactly how soon is yet to be seen. And receiver Luther Burden is going to miss the preseason but is expected to be back for Week 1 of the regular season. Also in this episode, the guys share their latest observations from practice at Halas Hall.
