Bears not waiting on Martellus Bennett to show

The Bears moved along in their second week of organized team activities without Martellus Bennett as the No. 1 tight end continues hoping for a new contract or trade to a team that will give him one.

OTA’s are voluntary, so Bennett is not incurring any fines. But neither is he incurring any time with a new offensive coordinator and system.

“As I said before, this is voluntary,” said coach John Fox. “It's not going to change for the rest of this off-season…. I just know we've got a lot guys out here working really hard to get better.
