Chicago Bears wide receiver Devin Hester missed practice on Wednesday after suffering an ankle injury against Cleveland this past Sunday.

Hester caught seven balls for 81 yards on Sunday and also returned four punts for 47 yards. The speedster leads the team in receptions (35) and receiving yards (454) while scoring three touchdowns.

Several other Bears were limited in Wednesday's practice session, including linebacker Lance Briggs (shoulder), defensive tackle Tommie Harris (knee), defensive end Adewale Ogunleye (ankle), safety Craig Steltz (bicep) and tight end Greg Olsen (ankle).

The Bears host the Arizona Cardinals in Week 9.
