Bear Strength

On Friday, the Chicago Bears retained defensive tackle Tommie Harris. Harris signed a 4-year, $40 million contract. “We didn't try to go out there and talk about one another or dispute different things, and I feel like we did it all in-house,” Harris said. “I would never go out and talk about the Bears in front of the media or disrespect my team.”

Since January 30, 2007, Tank Johnson has received fourteen mentions. Conversely, Harris has tallied 114 tackles and 19.5 sacks. Harris is not flashy. He is not quotable. He is simply brilliant. His payday is deserved.
