Chicago Bears rookie Roquan Smith held out of practice with hamstring tightness

Bears top pick Roquan Smith was held out of practice Tuesday with a left hamstring injury, according to head coach Matt Nagy.

Brian Urlacher is scheduled to appear at Football Legends Live, 8pm on Saturday, Sept. 8th at the Raue Center.

"He ended up having a little bit of tightness I guess in his left hamstring right on the side here," Nagy said following Tuesday's practice. "So there’s just some tightness, so it’s more precautionary than anything. That’s exactly why we do what we do. If you put him in early and he’s not ready, then something like this happens where it gets worse.
