Devin Hester's status remains murky for Lions

Devin Hester said he expected to be OK when he pulled a slipper on his left foot Monday night in the locker room in Philadelphia, but the Chicago Bears wide receiver didn't practice Thursday at Halas Hall.

Hester suffered a sprained left ankle in the fourth quarter of the victory over the Eagles. He had an Ace bandage wrap on it after the game, not a walking boot that is often used for more serious injuries.

If Hester is not available, it likely will increase opportunities for Earl Bennett in Sunday’s game against the Detroit Lions. Bennett could make his second start of the season.
