CHICAGO (AP) - Chicago Bears receiver Alshon Jeffery had arthroscopic surgery on his right knee this morning.
He is expected to miss 2-4 weeks.
Jeffery was injured in Monday's loss at San Francisco and left in the second half. It was the second injury for the rookie, who had missed the previous four games with a broken right hand.
A second-round draft pick, Jeffery has 16 catches for 199 yards and two touchdowns.
