Former Chicago Bear pleads guilty to tax charges

CHICAGO (AP) — Former Chicago Bears player Chris Zorich pleaded guilty Thursday to federal tax charges, admitting to the judge that he didn't file "in a timely fashion."

The 43-year-old faced four misdemeanor counts of not filing federal income tax returns from 2006 to 2009. Over that time, he allegedly made more than $1 million, including income from a charity he founded.

The judge asked Zorich if he knew he was wrong not to file the returns.
