A few NFC North evening tidbits:

Chicago Bears: Defensive end Adewale Ogunleye (ankle) returned to practice on a limited basis. In this link, Brad Biggs of the Chicago Sun-Times talks to Ogunleye about his matchup Sunday in Cleveland against former teammate John St. Clair.

Detroit Lions: Sunday’s game against St. Louis will be blacked out on local television, the Lions’ second blackout of the season. … As noted earlier, quarterback Matthew Stafford (knee) and receiver Calvin Johnson (knee) both participated in practice. … Linebacker Zack Follett (illness), defensive end Jason Hunter (ankle) and defensive tackle Grady Jackson (knee) missed practice.

Green Bay Packers: Center Scott Wells (non-football) and right tackle Mark Tauscher (knee) participated fully in practice Thursday. … According to Tom Silverstein of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel, the Packers are working hard to determine if tailback Ahman Green will be ready to help them Sunday.

Minnesota Vikings: Receiver Percy Harvin didn’t practice Thursday because of an illness. Migraines limited Harvin in practice earlier this season, but there is no indication if they have resurfaced this week. … Middle linebacker E.J. Henderson (knee) and receiver Bernard Berrian (hamstring) both returned to practice on a limited basis.
