Bears sign former first rounder DT Ziggy Hood
According to CBS Sports, the Chicago Bears have signed veteran defensive tackle Ziggy Hood after releasing defensive tackle Jeremiah Ratliff, who was involved in a heated exchange with GM Ryan Pace and resulted in an open spot for Hood.
CBS Sports writes:
'A former first-round pick in 2009, Hood was placed on injured reserve by the Jaguars to open the season due to a foot ailment, but was released earlier this week. Given that he's now listed on the Bears' 53-man roster, Hood has presumably recovered from the injury and should be available in a backup capacity for the team's next game Nov. 1 against the Vikings.'
