You know it’s bad, when you have to start replacing the replacements.

Bears coach Marc Trestman just announced that defensive tackle Nate Collins suffered a torn ACL and will be out for the rest of the season.

Collins was replacing Henry Melton, who was lost for the season with his own ACL tear last month.

That means the Bears will be looking again, and they better be looking for a guy with his own knee brace already.
