The Chicago Bears thinned out their glut of veteran corners.
The team announced it waived Tracy Porter on Monday. The move saves the Bears $3.6 million against the salary cap.
Porter spent the past two seasons in Chicago but made it through just one year of a three-year, $12 million contract signed last offseason.
The 30-year-old veteran played in 30 of 32 games over the past two seasons, but dealt with knee injuries last season that contributed to his up-and-down campaign. In 2016, Porter compiled 48 tackles, nine passes defended and two interceptions.
