The Chicago Bears offensive line has been among the worst groups in the NFL through three games, and the unit just took another hit heading into Week 4 against the Los Angeles Rams.

Head coach Matt Eberflus told the media that right tackle Darnell Wright will not practice Wednesday as he deals with a back injury. Eberflus sounded "hopeful" that Wright, who's considered "day-to-day," will respond this week and be ready for Sunday's game against the Rams.

If Wright can't go, Eberflus said rookie Kiran Amegadjie "is one of our options" to play at right tackle. He said Amegadjie, who's coming back from a quad injury, is "continuing to improve."

Other updates: Receiver Keenan Allen, who has missed the last two games with a heel injury, will be a limited participant in practice on Wednesday, where the belief is he'll be available for Sunday's game. Defensive end Darrell Taylor isn't practicing as he's dealing with an illness.
