CHICAGO (AP) – The Chicago Bears say they will hold defensive tackle Tommie Harris out of Monday night game against the Green Bay Packers on a coach’s decision.
The reasons behind that decision were not clear.
A three-time Pro Bowl pick, Harris was benched for a game last season and suspended for one in 2008 because of detrimental conduct. He has also been limited by knee and hamstring injuries over the past four years, although he was not listed on the Bears’ injury report leading up to Monday’s game.
He has insisted he is healthy but is off to a slow start with one tackle and a fumble recovery. Matt Toeaina started at defensive tackle.
The Bears held out struggling receiver Devin Aromashodu, while left tackle Chris Williams and safety Major Wright sat out with hamstring injuries.
