As per Ian Rapoport, Keenan Allen returned to practice with the Bears on Wednesday, albeit as a limited participant. This is good news for fantasy managers who want to pick the wideout for Week 4.

While Allen is not yet cleared to play against the Rams on Sunday, he should be able to make a return if all goes well. Nonetheless, fantasy managers should wait and monitor Allen's status throughout the week before deciding to play him for Week 4.

Allen, dealing with a heel injury during the preseason, reportedly re-aggravated the issue during Chicago's 24-17 win over the Tennessee Titans in Week 1. He caught four receptions for 29 yards, tallying 6.9 fantasy points.

Allen missed the Bears' next two games against the Houston Texans and the Indianapolis Colts due to the heel injury.

However, it appears Allen is on track to get back into action. The Bears have lost both their games when Allen hasn't played this season and they will be hoping that the six-time Pro Bowl receiver can change their fortunes.
