He will remain "questionable" on the injury report, but Devin Hester will play in the Bears crossroads game against Arizona tomorrow. A Chicago win would place the Bears at 5-3 at the season's mid-point, but a loss would mean a disappointing 4-4 record.
Hester has been recovering from an ankle injury he suffered against the Cleveland Browns last Sunday. Although I don't see the speedster as a #1 receiver, the Bears are just now beginning to develop weapons for Jay Cutler. This makes Hester's presence very important. Furthermore, I expect that both teams will score early and often, it will be important to have everyone available.
It is still unclear whether Hester will return punts. If not, Earl Bennett is likely to take over for him. Expect the Bears and Hester to play with a kind of desperation on Sunday. Their season depends on it.
