Urlacher won't be back with Bears
LAKE FOREST – Brian Urlacher won't be in a Bears uniform next season.
The team announced it was unable to reach an agreement with the 13-year star linebacker on Wednesday. Urlacher filed for free agency last week.
"Brian has been an elite player in our league for over a decade," Bears General Manager Phil Emery said in a written statement. "He showed great leadership and helped develop a winning culture over his time with the Bears. We appreciate all he has given our team, on and off the field. Brian will always be welcome as a member of the Bears."
