Rome has missed 12 straight games with a broken foot.

Aaron Rome (groin) is apparently alright to play, but he will won't suit up on Thursday. Coach Glen Gulutzan said he expects that Rome will make his season debut on Saturday.

Aaron Rome (groin) might be available for Thursday's game against Chicago. Rome has already missed three games due to a groin injury. Keep in mind that he was also regarded as questionable for Tuesday's contest, but was ultimately scratched, so nothing is set in stone.
