Here's the full injury rundown for the Chicago Bears.

This is Cheta Ozougwu back when he was a Texan, the AP must have missed him when he was on the Bears

I was beginning to think of Harvey Unga like the mythical Yeti of the North. We've heard quite a bit about him since he was drafted in the 7th round of the 2010 supplemental draft, but he's only been seen carrying the ball nine times. All nine of his carries occurred on August 13, 2011, in the preseason game against the Buffalo Bills.

If I had a picture of the bruising tailback made available to me, I'd have slapped it on the post, but since I don't, you get Cheta Ozougwa.

If I had a pic of Cheta as a Bear I would have used that, but alas, that wasn't available either.

Regardless, Unga has been promoted and Ozougwa waived. Unga is needed because Armando Allen missed practice all week and Matt Forte was limited at practice today.

In other injury news... Brian Urlacher is listed as doubtful, Allen and Henry Melton are both listed as questionable, Forte is probable, and finally Chris Conte and Blake Costanzo are both out.
