Bears place LB Trevathan on IR with elbow injury
LAKE FOREST, Ill. (AP) — The Chicago Bears placed inside linebacker Danny Trevathan on injured reserve Wednesday because of a left elbow injury.

The team leader at the time with 50 tackles, Trevathan ran off with his arm dangling by his side, His future is uncertain. Tevathan has an expiring contract and has finished two of the past four seasons on injured reserve.
