Chicago Bears linebacker Brain Urlacher has been missing a lot of practices including the pre-season opener against the Denver Broncos this past Thursday. Urlacher met with the press to clarify the reason why he missed recent practices and talk about the progress with his knee. He stated “September 9, I’ll be ready to play for sure.” He told the press that the recent absences have been because of a personal matter but assured that his knee was getting better. He participated in the first round of practices, but after that he felt soreness in his knee and it began to swell. The Bears are giving him as much time as he needs, not rushing him back on to the game. He is likely to miss the upcoming pre-season game at home this Saturday against the Washington Redskins.
