Royal (calf) was unable to practice Wednesday, Jeff Dickerson of ESPN.com reports.
Kevin White's placement on injured reserve is expected to have a trickle-down effect on the rest of the Bears' receiving corps, but both Royal and Zach Miller (ribs) are kicking off Week 5 prep with a DNP in drills. Royal is coming off his best game of the season, hauling in all seven passes from Brian Hoyer for 111 yards and one touchdown Sunday against the Lions. However, a repeat performance this Sunday at Indianapolis won't be possible until Royal returns to practice.
