The Facts:
Forte had arthroscopic surgery on his left knee within the last two weeks, according to multiple sources.

Fantasy Football Diehards Line:
According to Tribune staffer Vaughn McClure, the clean-up procedure followed a post-season MRI. Forte sprained the medial collateral ligament in his knee during the Bears' 25-19 victory at Seattle in Week 3, but it is unclear if the surgery stems from that specific injury. Although Forte ran better toward the end of the season, he averaged just 3.6 yards per carry, down from his 3.9-yard average as a rookie. He finished with 929 rushing yards on 258 carries as the Bears ranked 29th in the league.
