Wright inactive; Harris back in starting role for Bears

Published: Oct 23, 2011 at 04:40 AM

Chicago Bears safety Major Wright is out of Sunday's game in London against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, putting Chris Harris back in the starting lineup.

Wright had been limited in practice throughout the week with a hip injury.

Harris will return to the lineup one week after being benched for Wright. Harris was inactive last week for the Bears' victory over the Minnesota Vikings, and his agent received permission to seek a trade but couldn't before Tuesday's deadline.

Harris has just five tackles so far this season.
