Anthony Miller didn’t make it to the 2021 season as a Bear after all.
The Bears are shipping the enigmatic wide receiver to the Texans, the NFL Network reported Saturday night, just three days before the team’s veterans were set to report to training camp. It’s unclear what the Bears are getting in return.
Miller’s last game was a telling one: he was ejected for fighting in the wild-card playoff game against Saints cornerback C.J. Gardner-Johnson, who had forced Javon Wims’ ejection using similar tactics earlier in the year.
Because of Wims’ experience, the Bears held a 15-minute meeting the week of the playoff game to worn receivers not to get suckered into fighting Gardner-Johnson.
