Chicago Bears receiver Roy Williams, who suffered a groin injury in Sunday?s 30-12 win over the Falcons, will sit out Wednesday?s practice as the Bears begin preparation for the New Orleans Saints.

Williams has received routine treatment on his groin over the last few days. He wouldn?t speculate on his status for the New Orleans game.

Williams, who caught four passes for 55 yards in the opener before exiting in the fourth quarter, hopes to return to practice Thursday.

"It?s not a bad thing missing a day of practice,?? Williams said. "I remember in Detroit during the best year I had, my son had gotten sick in Texas and I flew down and I missed Wednesday and Thursday practices. I came back Friday, played against the Bills Sunday and I had like (10) catches for 161 yards and a touchdown.
�
"I?m not going to go Allen Iverson on you, but (missing practice) was good for my legs. At the same time, you have to be there mentally. And I was there mentally that week.??

If Williams can?t go Sunday, Johnny Knox would step in as the ``X?? receiver.

"I hope to be back as soon as I can,?? Williams said.
