Chicago Bears Training Camp Day 4 Recap: DE Turk McBride out for the season

Some bad news this morning for Chicago Bears defensive end Turk McBride. He figured to have an uphill climb to a secured roster spot, but with him rupturing his Achilles tendon, his season is now over.

In other injury news, starting left tackle Jermon Bushrod has a strained calf, defensive end Cheta Ozougwu sat out with a hamstring injury, and wide out Brandon Marshall was held out as precautionary measure after hip surgury during the off season. Marshall's time off was scheduled, so there was no setback to concern yourself with.

Now on to some tweets...

Cornelius Washington is still listed at OLB on the Bears website, but it looks like he's playing DE at Training Camp.

This is an interesting wrinkle to the offense
