In a move that many people expected, Nathan Vasher was released by the Chicago Bears this afternoon.   Per PFT:

The Chicago Bears, less than two weeks after bringing in plenty of new talent, have gotten rid of a guy who used to be one of the team's key players on defense.

Gone is veteran cornerback Nathan Vasher, a six-year veteran who appeared in one Pro Bowl.

Many people thought that Vasher's contract was too rich for his contributions, but in an uncapped year it's not like the cap space was needed.  Nonetheless, thank you for  your years of service, Mr. Vasher, and best of luck in the future.
