Bears: TE Zach Miller inks year extension

LAKE FOREST, Ill. - Tight end Zach Miller on Friday signed a one year extension through the 2015 season with the Chicago Bears, according to the team website.

Miller, a product of Nebraska-Omaha, has not played a regular season game since 2011. He was placed on injured reserve with the Jaguars near the end of 2012, then signed and released by Tampa Bay in 2013, before signing with Chicago in December of that year.

He caught two touchdowns on 68 yards in a preseason match up with Philadelphia last preseason before being placed on injured reserve on August 15th with a foot injury.

"Freak things," Miller said, via the Chicago Tribune. "That's what happened."

Drafted in the sixth round by Jacksonville in 2009, he started five games and played an additional 33 for the Jaguars, notching 470 career yards and four touchdowns from 2009-11.
