Former Chicago Bears defensive tackle Jeremiah "Jay" Ratliff was released by the team last week after several reported exchanges between him and the organization.
According to the Chicago Tribune, the release came after Ratliff displayed erratic behavior during a "bizarre and emotionally charged chain of events."
Apparently the four-time Pro Bowler got into a couple heated exchanges with Bears general manager Ryan Pace — a situation that led to the police being called to the team's facility.
Now comes this report indicating that the Bears organization notified the Dallas Cowboys of Ratliff's release as a security precaution.
