There seemed to be little to no concern about Roquan Smith’s place in the Bears’ future, but after months of him and the team saying publicly they intended to secure him on a long-term contract extension, they’re in a standoff.
The Bears are uncertain whether Smith will report to Halas Hall on Tuesday with the rest of their veterans or practice when training camp begins Wednesday, a source said. Smith, 25, is heading into the final season of his rookie deal.
