Bears Place LB Hunter Hillenmeyer on IR
By admin
Chicago Bears linebacker Hunter Hillenmeyer has been placed on injured reserve, reports Brad Biggs of the Chicago Tribune.
Biggs adds that the 29-year old Hillenmeyer did not travel with the team for the pre-season finale due to an illness, and left Sunday's season-opener against the Detroit Lions with an "undisclosed illness".
"Honestly, I am feeling better," Hillenmeyer told "The Mully & Hanley Show" on WSCR-AM 670 on Tuesday, according to Biggs. "I don't know exactly the details of all that. You know how (head coach) Lovie (Smith) is about talking about anything health-related. We'll leave it at that."
