Former Bears defensive tackle Tommie Harris has had a rough year, and he has now been arrested in an incident in Chicago that sounds troubling.
Harris, whose wife died in February at the age of 29, leaving him with two young children, was arrested in Chicago late Monday night and accused of threatening police officers who came upon him urinating outside a bar.
Harris was charged with misdemeanor counts of indecent exposure, urinating in public and simple assault.
A 2004 first-round draft pick of the Bears, Harris was selected to three Pro Bowls but began to decline after suffering knee and hamstring injuries. He was released by the Bears after the 2010 season and played for the Chargers in 2011.
