LAKE FOREST, Ill. -- The Chicago Bears placed veteran pass-rusher Willie Young on injured reserve, the team announced Tuesday.
The Bears said Young suffered a triceps injury in Week 4 against Green Bay, but he was listed as having limited participation in practice last Thursday. Young, who subsequently missed the next two days of practice and was listed as doubtful, was inactive Monday against Minnesota.
Young had seven tackles, two sacks and four quarterback hurries in the first four games for the Bears this season.
An eight-year veteran, Young has been one of Chicago's best pass-rushers since he joined the club in 2014.
