Royal (calf) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against Jacksonville, and he is expected to play without practicing for a second straight week, CBS Chicago reports.

EDGE Analysis

Despite missing practice all last week, Royal handled his usual role in the slot, catching seven of nine targets for 43 yards in a loss to Indianapolis. It appears he's headed for the same routine in Week 6, only this time owners won't be caught off guard by the Bears' odd handling of the injury report. Given how deceptive the team has been in regard to injuries, it would still be wise to confirm Royal's status when inactives are released 90 minutes before Sunday's 1:00 p.m. ET kickoff.
