Bears sign former Colts corner, drop McKie

Tim Jennings was the rare Colts draft pick at cornerback that didn’t pan out.

Lovie Smith will try to get more out of him than Tony Dungy could, as the Bears signed Jennings to a two-year contract Tuesday. Jennings, a former second round pick, was not tendered a contract by Indianapolis as a restricted free agent.

Chicago also announced the release of fullback Jason McKie, who spent six years with the team. He was an awkward fit for Mike Martz’s offense.
