LAKE FOREST, Ill. — Here are ten things you should know from Halas Hall as the Bears continue to prepare for the New York Jets:

1. Shea McClellin suffered a hand injury in practice. After being limited Thursday with the injury, McClellin did not practice at all Friday, which is usually a sign that the injury occurred in practice. Bears head coach Marc Trestman confirmed as much Friday, but did not give any indication as to whether or not the strong-side linebacker will be able to play Monday night.

If McClellin can’t go, expect Jon Bostic to start at the SAM linebacker position, while also fulfilling his usual role in nickel formations. Despite not being a starter in the base defense, Bostic has already played the second-most snaps among Bears linebackers this season (72), trailing only Lance Briggs (128). McClellin has played 63 snaps through the first two games, while middle linebacker D.J. Williams has played the fewest with 59 snaps.

Second-year linebacker Khaseem Greene would likely be active if McClellin doesn’t play.

2. Matt Slauson won’t get a chance to play against his former team. The left guard is nursing a high ankle sprain suffered in Week 1 against the Bills and won’t get to play against the Jets, who he played for from 2009-12.

“Obviously I would have loved to play against all my old teammates, but I got to be smart,” Slauson said Friday.

Center Roberto Garza, who also suffered a high ankle sprain in Week 1, is not expected to return against the Jets either.

3. Jeremiah Ratliff still hasn’t practiced. The defensive tackle is recovering from a concussion sustained against the 49ers and has not been cleared to practice. He’s been out on the practice field, but hasn’t done any physical activity in the short portion open to the media.

4. Elsewhere on the injury report: wide receiver Brandon Marshall (ankle), cornerback Sherrick McManis (quad) and Trevor Scott (foot) did not practice. Marshall is expected to be fine for Monday’s game. Safety Chris Conte (shoulder) and wide receiver Alshon Jeffery (hamstring) were limited and should also be good for Monday. Defensive end Jared Allen practiced in full after missing Thursday’s practice with a back injury.

5. Jay Cutler took the high road on Devin Hester. After a veiled shot from the former Bears returner Thursday night, Cutler said he didn’t hear the comments and was just happy for Hester after he set the NFL’s all-time return record.

“I’m happy for him,” Cutler said. “He seems to be in a good place there, obviously scoring touchdowns is always a good thing for him. They use him in different ways. Couldn’t be more happy for him. He’s a good guy. Well deserved for him.”

6. Trestman took some time Friday to address Hester’s record with the team. Twenty of Hester’s 21 career returns came in a Bears’ uniform.

“As I said to the team today, we’re happy for Devin,” Trestman said. “I texted him last night, he texted me back and I’m excited for this mountain that he’s ascended to. Everybody here knows him as a teammate and coached player and loves him as a person.”

As for Hester saying he wasn’t happy in Chicago the last three to four years and that possibly having something to do with a lack of a connection with Cutler, Trestman said:

“I don’t know. I couldn’t answer that question. Connecting, that’s a question you’d have to ask Jay,” Trestman said. “I was here a year with Devin and found him to be a really good teammate and a guy you liked having around. Decisions were made for whatever reasons and it’s good that he’s having success.”

7. Meanwhile, a day after Brandon Marshall’s unique press conference on domestic violence, Cutler showed nothing but support for his close friend, as would be expected.

“I’ve been texting with him just to make sure he’s good,” Cutler said. “I read some of his comments from yesterday. I couldn’t be more proud of him as a person, as a player, and as a friend of mine. We all have made mistakes in this room, some of us have a hard time owning up to them, even including myself. But I think Brandon’s been an open book about the mistakes that he’s made and he’s made amends for them and he’s doing great things right now, so it is what it is.”

8. Wide receiver Eric Decker (hamstring) and cornerback Dee Milliner (ankle/quad) remain questions for the Jets. Neither player practiced Friday and Milliner’s quad issue was added to the injury report after the cornerback practiced on a limited basis Thursday with the ankle injury. Jets head coach Rex Ryan has maintained that Decker doesn’t need to practice this week in order to play Monday.

9. The Bears have extensively researched the Jets’ defensive fronts. The organization’s analytical team, led by Mitch Tanney, always spends a ton of time researching opponents, but the Jets’ defense is unique in the multiple fronts the team uses.

“We spent a lot of time researching all the different fronts they’ve played this season and last season,” Trestman said. “It’s No. 1 on the hit list of things we’ve got to be prepared for and this is to keep Jay as clean as we can. Try to figure out a formula for how they do it, because they are so multiple. I’m not saying we have all the answers, but we feel going into it we’re going to have Jay in the best position to keep him safe back there. But it won’t be easy. It’s a complicated formula certainly.”

One of the specific areas where the Jets are unique is the amount of zero pressure (all-out blitz, with straight man coverage) they use.

“The uniqueness is that you don’t see as much of it with other teams as you do here,” Trestman said. “There’s a lot more seven-man rushes than you see most teams over the last two weeks. They brought everybody 25 times for instance — 10 times last week. So that’s a lot of bringing the house and putting your safeties in a position where they’ve got to cover the whole field and your corners. That doesn’t mean they’ll do it to us, but last year at this time they probably ran 20 the whole season and they’ve already run 25.”

10. Trestman denied comment on Roger Goodell. The Bears head coach’s press conference coincided with the commissioner’s, but that didn’t prevent Trestman from being asked about what Goodell was saying in New York.

“I wouldn’t answer that question right now because I want to know what Roger Goodell had to say and understand what he had to say, so I’ll leave it at that,” Trestman said.

Maybe he should have left it at that, but instead Trestman went on to show support for the embattled commissioner, who didn’t seem to help his cause in New York Friday.

“I’m not going to sit here and comment on his comments that I didn’t have a chance to listen to,” Trestman continued. “But certainly, I respect the man and I believe  that everything he is trying to do is in the best interest of the league and I’ll leave it at that.”
