Bears' Urlacher out 4-6 weeks with injury

BOURBONNAIS, Ill., July 30 (UPI) -- Chicago Bears star Brian Urlacher will be sidelined four to six weeks with a leg injury, Coach Lovie Smith announced Friday.

Urlacher, a four-time all-pro linebacker, suffered a pulled right hamstring in training camp, Smith said.

Urlacher was injured during a drill Wednesday and was taken off the practice field in a golf cart. He was replaced on the starting unit by Hunter Hillenmeyer, a second-year player.

The 6-4, 258-pound Urlacher had 115 tackles and 2 1/2 sacks in 16 games last season.

Urlacher has been the Bears' leading tackler since joining them four years ago after starring at the University of New Mexico.
