LAKE FOREST, Ill. (AP) — The Chicago Bears have waived injured special-teams contributor Brian Iwuh and promoted linebacker Patrick Trahan from the practice squad.
The Bears announced the moves Tuesday, two days after Iwuh hurt his hamstring in a loss at Oakland.
Iwuh had 32 special-teams tackles in two seasons with Chicago, including a team-high 14 this year. He spent his first four seasons with Jacksonville. Trahan, undrafted out of Mississippi, has spent the past two seasons on the practice squads with the Bears and Tennessee Titans.
