While injured players are coming back to help the defense, the Bears will be calling on one key reserve on offense Sunday at Green Bay.
John St. Clair is expected to start at left tackle for John Tait, who will miss the game with a high right ankle sprain. Tait was held out of practice all week and is doubtful on the injury report. With a high sprain, it's possible he could be sidelined again next week.
St. Clair started twice in place of Tait last season when his left ankle was bothering him, but he has more experience on the other side.
''As long as I get practice at one, I'm fine,'' St. Clair said. ''I practiced all week at left tackle, so I'm good. That's not a problem.''
St. Clair would face Kabeer Gbaja-Biamila, who is having a bit of a career revival in a part-time role. The Elias Sports Bureau made a statistics change this week, crediting him with three sacks last week at Minnesota and moving him past Reggie White as Green Bay's all-time leading sacker. He has 4½ this season after totaling just 14 in the last two seasons combined.
