June 11, 200817 yr comment_40394 Urlacher is there! According to Zack Zaidman Urlacher is on the field in uniform stretching right now. Nobody expected him to be there especially so soon. Makes you wonder if maybe he and bears management is starting to make progress... Report
June 11, 200817 yr comment_40401 Not to be a pessimist, but I think it is more a matter of Urlacher realizing he has a greater chance of getting a new deal by showing up and acting the role of the good soldier. By skipping workouts and drawing a line in the sand, the team is more likely to simply play hardball. By showing up, he keeps the fan support on his side, and can put more pressure on the team to give him more money. Report
June 11, 200817 yr comment_40402 That's not a surprise. A surprise would have been if Benson showed up. Report
June 11, 200817 yr Author comment_40403 It's a suprise considering these OTA's were optional and Urlacher has not been to one of these yet this year. Report
June 11, 200817 yr comment_40404 Did anybody think he wouldnt be there in the end? Thats not what kind of guy he is. Im sure he is still seeking a new deal but he isnt going to be his priorities before the teams. Report

June 11, 200817 yr comment_40416 That's not a surprise. A surprise would have been if Benson showed up. It would be nice if he and the team are ready to settle and move forward. Regardless, I'm just glad he's back! Report
