WATCH: Bears WR Javon Wims messes with cab driver, sheds light on injury – Bears Wire

When Bears second-year receiver Javon Wims went down with a knee injury in the teams win against the Cowboys on Thursday evening, many feared for the worst as he was down for several minutes before gingerly walking off the field. Wims, however, seems to be in very good spirits and doesnt seem too concerned about the injury based on his Instagram story.

Wims posted a six minute video to his Instagram story on Saturday, talking with a ride share driver about the Bears, while pretending he was just a fan of the team. The two discussed quarterback Mitchell Trubisky, the receiving corps, fan burner accounts on social media and more during the drive.

When Wims, still pretending to be a fan, began talking about himself, the driver wondered how his injury looked after seeing him go down on Thursday. Wims decided to speculate on the situation.

Hes not too bad, I think hell be alright, Wims said. It looked like he was OK. Wims also hyped himself up, saying that kid has a bright future, he has all the intangibles while smiling.

When the driver finally discovers who he is, they both share a laugh. The driver then asks how hes doing regarding his knee injury. Yeah, Im good, Wims says with a laugh. The driver then asks if he walked to the car alright, to which Wims replied, Yeah, I just got back. Everything is positive.

The video focused primarily on the former Georgia Bulldog messing with the driver about who he was and offering priceless descriptions of his teammates, but the reveal regarding his knee injury is good news.

This comes a day after NFL Network Insider Ian Rapoport reported Wims had a slight knee sprain and that it wasnt major. The sprain occurred late in the first half when Trubisky attempted to find Wims in the endzone, but the receiver couldnt make the catch and fell awkwardly with Cowboys linebacker Jaylon Smith.

With Wims himself saying hes good and that he walked to the car fine, its another positive sign for the receivers recovery. However, its still too early to tell if Wims will miss any games.
