Urlacher won't be back with Bears
CHICAGO – Brian Urlacher wanted to re-sign with the Bears.
Instead, they're parting ways with the veteran linebacker after 13 years.
General manager Phil Emery said Wednesday that the team couldn't agree on a contract with Urlacher, for years the heart and face of the franchise. He is now a free agent after being slowed by a knee problem and then missing the last four games of the season with a hamstring injury.
