Trevathan becomes 15th Bear to IR in 2016

LAKE FOREST, Ill. -- Chicago Bears linebacker Danny Trevathan's season is over after tests confirmed he suffered a ruptured right patellar tendon in Sunday's 27-21 loss to the Tennessee Titans.

Trevathan becomes the 15th Bears player in 2016 to land on injured reserve.

"He's obviously a very talented player and a guy we targeted and went after in the offseason," coach John Fox said. "Unfortunately he also had a thumb injury that required surgery earlier in the season [forcing him to miss two weeks]. But he looked very good in the offseason work and in training camp.
