HARRIS WAS LATE FOR A MEETING AND TREATMENT

Bears defensive tackle Tommie Harris will miss Sunday’s game against the Lions due to a one-game suspension. The suspension, we’re told, arises from a failure by Harris to arrive on time for a meeting, and also a failure to show up on time for a treatment session on his injured knee. His contract contains a roster bonus that is tied to participating in 74 percent of the defensive snaps or making the Pro Bowl. So the missed game necessarily reduces his ability to meet the trigger by 1/16th. That said, it’s our understanding that Harris was expected to miss Sunday’s game, due to his knee injury.
