Bears Urlacher FootballAccording to the sources, Brian Urlacher, the Chicago Bears linebacker who seemed to be healthy since two long years after recovering from neck and back injuries, revisited his history of injuries once again during a regular season opener when the player reportedly lowered his shoulder and collided with the Packers’ quarterback Aaron Rodgers, thus leaving the player to out of the entire season.

Urlacher, who kick started his 10th season quite well, will now miss the entire season due to the sustained injury. The Chicago Bears linebacker reportedly underwent surgery on Monday night in order to heal his dislocated right wrist and will miss the action for the whole season, thereby causing worries for his team who had high expectations from Urlracher. The news was confirmed by the Bears spokesman Jim Christman. Inside sources reveal that Christman didn’t comment anything about Urlicher’s injury except that he had sent a text message to the Chicago Tribune which said: “season is over”.

According to the sources, the alleged injury occurred during the Bears 21-15 loss to Green Bay Packers on Sunday night. The match witnessed Urlacher briefly shaking his wrist after tackling the running back of the Packers, Ryan Grant, although it is assumed that he was already injured. “Talk about a guy that’s a great leader,” said Hunter Hillenmeyer, who replaced Urlracher as the middle linebacker. “First he plays an entire half of football with a dislocated wrist. I don’t think there’s many people who can do something like that,” added Hunter.

The loss of Urlacher may prove costly for the Bears with some important matches scheduled down the pipeline.

    You make it sound like he is injury prone. Guy has missed like 7 career games to date….and I don’t understand what hitting Aaron Rodgers has to do with anything? Your first paragraph sucks.
