Bears running back Khalil Herbert took the next step toward returning to game action Sunday when he was a full participant in Thursday’s practice. Herbert practiced in full last week, but those were closer to walk-throughs because of the Bears’ short week. He was limited Wednesday.
Splitting carries between Herbert and D’Onta Foreman on Sunday would be a “fortunate position to be in,” offensive coordinator Luke Getsy said Wednesday. Herbert has practiced the last two weeks but still needs to be activated off injured reserve. He’s been out since hurting his ankle while trying to catch a Justin Fields pass against the Commanders in Week 5.
