CHICAGO – Martellus Bennett's time in Chicago may be up.
The Chicago Bears' decision to place Bennett on injured reserve on Tuesday could signal the end of a productive three-year run for the outspoken tight end.
There are multiple reasons for a potential split.
The most obvious factor: money.
Bennett has one year left on his contract, but he wants a more lucrative deal. He proved that when he skipped the entire voluntary portion of the offseason program in search of new money or a trade.
