Health continues to be a issue for the Chicago Bears who lost four starters due to injuries over the course of their 23-17 overtime loss to the Seattle Seahawks on Sunday.
Urlacher sustained an injury to his right hamstring late in
the game. He was not on the field for Seattle’s game-winning touchdown pass in
overtime. The veteran had his leg wrapped by the club’s training staff and was relegated
to the sidelines.
Bennett is dealing with a concussion. While he didn’t exit
the game following the play, he was hit hard during his touchdown reception in
the first half. He leapt across the goal line, was knocked upside down and
appeared to land on his head.
Jennings exited the game early in overtime after being run
over by Seahawks fullback Michael Robinson. Following the game coach Lovie
Smith said Jennings suffered a shoulder injury while attempting to make the
tackle. At this point the injury isn’t believed to be serious.
Beyond Urlacher, Bennett and Jennings the Bears also lost safety
Chris Conte, who was dealing with the flu.
