Bears Release T Orlando Pace

The Chicago Bears waived offensive tackle Orlando Pace on Monday.

Pace, a veteran of 13 NFL seasons, started in 11 games at left tackle for Chicago last year. The seven-time Pro Bowl selection out of Ohio State had two years left on a three-year deal he signed before the 2009 season.

The 34-year-old Pace blocked for three straight NFL MVPs (quarterback Kurt Warner in 1999 and 2001 and running back Marshall Faulk in 2000). Pace also helped lead the Rams to a Super Bowl XXXIV title.

The first overall pick of the 1997 NFL draft, Pace has started in 165 of 169 career games played with the Rams and Bears. The 6-foot-7, 325-pounder spent 12 years in St. Louis.
