Aromashodu active vs. Bengals, will he play at receiver?

CINCINNATI–Defensive end Gaines Adams is active and will make his debut with the Bears this afternoon.

He took the place of defensive tackle Tommie Harris on the 45-man gameday roster and the Bears will rely on Marcus Harrison and Israel Idonije to man the under tackle position. Accordingly, rookie third-round draft pick Jarron Gilbert is inactive. This is the fourth game he has not dressed for, and Gilbert has appeared in just one, vs. Detroit.

Wide receiver Devin Aromashodu is active for the second consecutive week, and I am interested to see if he gets worked into the rotation at wide receiver. He played on special teams last week at Atlanta. Aromashodu emerged as a favorite target of Jay Cutler during training camp and preseason. We’ll see if they make some room for him in the rotation.

Here are the inactives for the Bears:

G Lance Louis

DE Jarron Gilbert

DT Tommie Harris

DT Matt Toeaina

RB Adrian Peterson

LB Pisa Tinoisamoa

CB D.J. Moore

WR Juaquin Iglesias

And for Cincinnati:

QB Jordan Palmer

S Roy Williams

RB Brian Leonard

LB Dan Skuta

OT Andre Smith

OT Scott Kooistra

TE Chase Coffman

WR Jerome Simpson
