LAKE FOREST, Ill. -- Chicago Bears wide receiver Kevin White will be placed on injured reserve with a fractured left fibula, costing him much of the season after missing his entire rookie season with a stress fracture in the same leg.White was injured Sunday in a 17-14 victory over the Detroit Lions. In addition to the broken bone, White suffered a high ankle sprain as he was tackled during the third quarter.White leads the Bears this season in receptions with 19, and has 187 receiving yards. The seventh overall draft pick in 2015, he went on IR during the preseason last year because of left shin injury.Coach John Fox characterized the latest injury as a spiral fracture and said White could come off IR late in the season.This injury is not nearly as serious as the last one, Fox said Wednesday. Its a completely different bone in the lower leg.White was gradually picking up the NFL game and had six catches Sunday against the Lions. Fox called it Whites best game and quarterback Brian Hoyer agreed.Just as a football player, football awareness, catching the ball, really everywhere he was making strides each week, Hoyer said. So I know thats disappointing for him.Missing most of his first two seasons could lead to a problem in Whites development. Fox said his own experience with Denver receiver Demaryius Thomas keeps him from selling players short due to missed time early in their careers.He (Thomas) probably didnt do a whole lot until year three, Fox said. He had setbacks and he was injured coming out of college. He had an Achilles injury after that and a finger injury after that and he had two surgeries in his first year and a half of NFL football. Hes turned out pretty good.With White gone, Bears backups Cameron Meredith and Josh Bellamy will be called on to make bigger contributions at wide receiver to provide a counter threat to Alshon Jeffery heading into Sundays game at Indianapolis.Meredith had four catches against Detroit for 28 yards. A former quarterback at Illinois State, he thinks that experience can give him an advantage.Its started to kind of fade away, Meredith said of his background throwing passes instead of catching them. But those little things, you need to get on the same page with the quarterback, know where they want to throw the ball. Im excited to get out there and make some plays.Hoyer continued taking snaps with the first team with Jay Cutler sidelined due to a thumb sprain. Cutler did not practice again Wednesday.On Monday, Fox called every position performance-based including quarterback. This would suggest Hoyer can keep the position if he continues to produce like he did Sunday with 302 passing yards and a passer rating of 120.1.At this point Im just trying to keep doing what Im doing, keep doing what Im asked of, Hoyer said. And when I get a chance to play, play the best I can.Game notes Inside linebacker Danny Trevathan, who had thumb surgery two weeks ago, practiced Wednesday on a limited basis with a cast on his hand. Defensive coordinator Vic Fangio said its his experience that playing with cast doesnt work well, but its possible Trevathan could manage it. Air Force 1 Køb .

OTTAWA, Ontario -- The Ottawa Senators were hoping one day Robin Lehner would be their No. 1 goalie. On Saturday night, he came back to town and beat them as a member of the Buffalo Sabres.Acquired from Ottawa before last season, Lehner made 31 saves in Buffalos 2-1 comeback victory.Thats the big reason why we won, Sabres forward Sam Reinhart said about Lehners play. He was the one guy for the full 60 minutes that gave it his all and was really the big reason why we won that game.Kyle Okposo and Reinhart scored in the third period to help the Sabres rally for their fourth win in five games.Okposo tied it early in the period when he tipped a point shot from Jake McCabe past Craig Anderson.The Sabres took their first lead when Reinhart took advantage of a turnover at the side of the Ottawa goal. Anderson stopped the first shot, but Reinhart was able to jam a loose puck in between the skate of Anderson and the post at 8:22.It was kind of an in-tight play and kind of lucky the way it worked out and was able to come back and be on the right side of the goalie, Reinhart ssaid.ddddddddddddThe Senators had an opportunity to tie it with a four-minute power play after Dmitry Kulikov got a high stick into the face of Bobby Ryan, but were unable to produce.Mike Hoffman scored for Ottawa, and Anderson made 30 saves.I think the game could have went either way and I think both teams played pretty good and had chances but Lehner did play really well, Hoffman said. We were generating chances, which is, at the end of the day, what we want to do. Some days theyre going to go in, unfortunately this was one of those days that things didnt go our way.Game notes The Sabres have won back-to-back games against the Senators for the first time in five years. ... Sabres forward William Carrier played his first NHL game.UP NEXT:The Sabres will conclude their two-game road swing against Boston on Monday night before returning home for a rematch with the Senators on Wednesday night.The Senators are at Nashville on Tuesday night.
