As injuries pile up around the NFL on this brutal Sunday, the Bears have lost perhaps their best player for at least the rest of today’s game.

Bears running back Matt Forte has suffered a knee injury, and the team has confirmed that he will not return.

Forte was having a solid day before the injury, with 41 rushing yards and 28 receiving yards. He’s been the most important player to their offense this season, and losing him for an extended period of time would be a major blow to Chicago.

The Bears lead the Vikings 20-13.
