Chicago Bears to be minus receiver Booker vs. St. Louis Rams
St. Louis Post-Dispatch | November 22, 2008
Chicago Bears receiver Marty Booker will miss the game against the Rams on Sunday because of a knee injury.

Rams hope to put the clamps on Bears return man Hester
Belleville News-Democrat | November 22, 2008
Electrifying Chicago Bears return man Devin Hester has yet to score a touchdown on a punt or kickoff return this season, and that's what frightens St. Louis Rams coach Jim Haslett.

If Williams is in, then who's out?
Chicago Sun-Times | November 22, 2008
Brad Biggs: The trick with getting first-round draft pick Chris Williams on the field, besides finding the right opportunity, is picking someone to send to the bench. When Williams got his first action of the year on offense last Sunday at Green Bay -- five plays on the final drive -- the odd man out was left guard Josh Beekman. Williams entered, and left tackle John St. Clair was kicked inside to Beekman's spot to make room.
