Mills is dealing with a right thumb injury, which isn't that surprising considering Mills' issues with accuracy on Sunday. On the bright side, Mills practiced fully on Wednesday, so this doesn't look like something that will keep him from playing against Chicago. Mills threw for 177 yards with no TDs or interceptions against Denver.
DT Maliek Collins (knee) and TE Brevin Jordan (ankle) are also dealing with injuries and were unable to participate in practice. Edge rusher Jerry Hughes did not practice on Wednesday (veteran rest day). DB Isaac Young (thigh) also missed practice.
LB Blake Cashman (hip), and Kamu Grugier-Hill (neck) were limited.

Peraza entered the game as a defensive replacement in the seventh inning and hit a bases-loaded fly ball to deep right field that eluded the outstretched glove of Cam Smith. It was the fourth straight hit off Astros closer Bryan Abreu (3-4), who had not allowed a run in his previous 12 appearances.
The Angels third run of the ninth inning scored when Mike Trout walked with the bases loaded.
Kyle Hendricks allowed one run while scattering seven hits over six innings. He held the Astros to 1 for 8 with runners in scoring position, the one hit coming on Jesús Sánchez’s third-inning infield single that scored Jeremy Peña.
