Bears linebacker sidelined for remainder of campaign by wrist surgery

Brian Urlacher will miss the rest of the season after dislocating his right wrist in the Chicago Bears' 21-15 defeat to the Green Bay Packers on Sunday. Urlacher, a six-time Pro Bowl linebacker, suffered the injury in the first quarter of his side's season-opening fixture. He carried on into the second quarter but departed for shortly after half-time. Bears spokesman Jim Christman confirmed on Monday that Urlacher had undergone surgery to repair the wrist and will not return to action this season.
