LAKE FOREST, Ill. -- For the third straight practice, the Chicago Bears excused rookie defensive lineman Jonathan Bullard for personal reasons on Wednesday, but head coach John Fox said he expects the third-round pick to rejoin the team Wednesday evening.

“Without going into too much detail, I think sometimes things outside of football kind of hold precedent over football,” Fox said Wednesday. “I expect him back tomorrow. Actually tonight, before tomorrow.”

While the news is encouraging for Bullard, who is having a productive camp, fellow rookie Leonard Floyd missed another practice, this time for what Fox called a leg injury. Floyd has dealt with issues ranging from illness to his hamstring and shoulder since the Bears jumped ahead two spots to draft him No. 9 overall.

Fox, however, stressed the team is happy with Floyd.

“I think he's been way more in than out,” Fox said. “We've been very, very pleased with his progress.”

In other injury news, running back Jeremy Langford (foot) practiced on a limited basis, but right tackle Bobby Massie and cornerback Deiondre' Hall are both sick. Inside linebacker Danny Trevathan dressed in full pads but did not participate in team drills.
