Former Georgia LB carted off field at NFL practice
There could be bad news out of Chicago for former Georgia LB Leonard Floyd. He was reportedly carted off at Bears practice Thursday.
Bears OLB Leonard Floyd just left practice on a cart. Media policy prohibits us from saying more. We'll ask coach John Fox for status update

Floyd sought medical attention after warm ups, according to USA Today’s Lorin Cox:
After warming up for the first official day of practices in Bourbonnais, IL, he ended up at the team’s medical tent before getting on a cart and being taken to the team’s locker room, according to multiple media reports.
While Fox will certainly be asked about Floyd, as Rich Campbell suggests above, it might not result in any significant update:
John Fox isn't required to tell us why Leonard Floyd was carted off the practice field, so don't get too anxious for any clarity.

Floyd was selected by Chicago with the No. 9 overall in the spring’s NFL Draft.
