You may have heard about the left knee that Brian Urlacher insisted all offseason wouldn’t be a problem. Well, it officially became a problem when he missed the first 2 weeks of training camp. Then he had it scoped today. It’s not yet clear how long he’ll be out, but early word is that the opener looks like a stretch. Nick Roach is the fill-in while Urlacher is out. Lance Briggs could grab a few more tackles with the MLB missing. Urlacher himself looks pretty risky as an IDP option. He’s no better than an LB3 at this point.
