KudosForND Posted February 28, 2011 Share Posted February 28, 2011 Bears released DT Tommie Harris. The Bears reportedly had some interest in bringing him back only if he took a sizable paycut, but evidently Harris wasn't willing to do so. The former Pro Bowler was slated to make $2.3 million in 2011, in addition to being due a $2.5 million roster bonus. Harris' play has declined rapidly in recent seasons, as he had only 13 tackles and two sacks in 2010 and was even benched on occasion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sperm Edwards Posted February 28, 2011 Share Posted February 28, 2011 Bears released DT Tommie Harris.

Harris' play has declined rapidly in recent seasons, as he had only 13 tackles and two sacks in 2010 and was even benched on occasion. So does that mean he was paid $30M for the first 2 years of his extension? Dayam! Rotoworld: 6/19/2008: Signed a four-year, $40 million contract extension through 2012. The deal contains $18 million guaranteed, including a $6.5 million signing bonus, a $3.5 million roster bonus in the first year, and a $6.67 million roster bonus in the second. Another $2 million is available through incentives. 2011: $2.3125 million (+ $2.5 million roster bonus due 6/1 + $500,000 workout bonus), 2012: $2.5 million, 2013: Free Agent Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

#27TheDominator Posted February 28, 2011 Share Posted February 28, 2011 Well, these are the kinds of guys to sign. Not saying him in particular, but his salary was $2.3M and the Bears were on the hook for $4.8M. Good chance these types of players will sign for somewhere in between. The Jets are dealing with a similar issue with Woody. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NJ Posted March 1, 2011 Share Posted March 1, 2011 He's toast. Harris was exceptional at coming off the snap with acceleration and power. It's gone - he knows it and so does anybody scouting him. Plus - he makes Bob Sanders look durable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
