John Tait Officially Retires


John Tait has turned in his retirement papers as an NFL source said his name came across the waiver wire less than an hour ago.

The Bears have placed him on the reserve/retired list.

John Tait, a first-round draft pick by the Kansas City Chiefs in 1999, walks away from the game after 10 seasons.
Tait had one year remaining on his contract and walks away from a base salary of $4.8 million and a workout bonus of $50,000. His departure clears $4.85 million in cap space for the Bears.
