Two sources said Harris still is a strong candidate to be cut before his bonus is due in June, despite general manager Jerry Angelo and coach Lovie Smith expressing confidence he can bounce back next season. -------------------------------------------- why release a DT cuz u add Julius Peppers? Considering i only know of two on the roster Report

Considering i only know of two on the roster The reasoning is two pronged: 1. If the Bears spend a bunch on other players, they might feel the need to release Tommie to cover the costs 2. They are the media and half the stuff they float out there is complete and utter crap just so they can drive people to their website to generate advertisement revenue Report

Just strange to even bother posting such things... ah well, better than sitting at work being bored Report
March 5, 201016 yr comment_78443 Release him in June and who has money left to sign him to a big deal? Then the Bears turn around and try to sign him to a lesser contract. It could be a cost savings move. Of course it's an uncapped year so there would significant risk to it but they could try it. It's not like Harris fits into everyone's scheme and his play and attitude has been really poor the last couple years. How big would his market be that late in the summer? Report
