Urlacher Shows Up For Start Of Bears’ Minicamp
May 30, 2008
Despite apparent dissatisfaction with his contract, linebacker Brian Urlacher showed up for the start of the Chicago Bears’ mandatory minicamp Friday.
“When it says mandatory, you’re supposed to be at those things, so that’s why I’m here,” Urlacher said. “I’m supposed to be here. I’m not trying to send any message. It’s a mandatory team function and we’re supposed to be here.”
Due to his displeasure with a nine-year contract that expires after the 2011 season, Urlacher has not participated in the Bears’ offseason conditioning drills or their voluntary workouts, known as organized team activities. He had also hinted in an Internet report this month that he might miss minicamp.
