LAKE FOREST, Ill. -- Chicago Bears safety Chris Conte had shoulder surgery in late March and will likely be out at least until the start of training camp, the team said Thursday. The expected recovery period is four to five months. Conte started all 16 games for the first time in his career last season, but struggled along with just about everyone else on defence. His worst moment was when he failed to lock onto Green Bays Randall Cobb in the closing minute of the final game. That led to a wide-open 47-yard touchdown pass from Aaron Rodgers on fourth down that gave the Packers a 33-28 victory and kept Chicago out of the playoffs. The Bears have been overhauling their defence, releasing defensive end Julius Peppers and signing Jared Allen to replace him. Theyve also made several moves at safety, re-signing Craig Steltz and bringing in Ryan Mundy from the New York Giants, M.D. Jennings from Green Bay, and Danny McCray from Dallas. "I know Im going to have to compete for my position on this team," Conte told the teams website. "I am prepared to do that and felt having this surgery was the best way to be 100 per cent healthy and be the best player I can possibly be." The Bears also re-signed offensive tackle Eben Britton to a one-year contract on Thursday. Avonte Maddox Jersey .

Claudio Ranieris men travelled to Old Trafford on Sunday knowing victory would seal an unprecedented maiden top-flight crown, but they had to withstand an early onslaught from the hosts, who were looking to strengthen their bid for Champions League qualification.Anthony Martial established Uniteds dominance on eight minutes, stroking Antonio Valencias cross beyond Kasper Schmeichel, but - as they have done so often throughout their remarkable campaign - Leicester hauled themselves back into the game through captain Wes Morgan. The result means Leicester will be crowned champions if second-placed Tottenham fail to win at Chelsea on Monday Night Football, and Souness was left to praise a performance he felt typified the Foxes season.Its incredibly hard to be anything other than utterly complimentary about this team, Souness told Super Sunday. How many Leicester players at the end of last season were negotiating clauses in their contracts in case they qualified for the Champions League, or won the Premier League? None of them!Their bonus would have been for avoiding relegation. Its really hard not to be totally in awe of this team. Morgan admitted Leicester had to work very hard for a point It was a typical Leicester performance today.dddddddddddd Theyve ended up with 30 percent possession yet, watching the game, it didnt feel like that.Theyve come to one of the worlds greatest football stadiums today and were not intimidated. They went a goal behind and showed real character and togetherness to get back into it. It’s really hard not to be totally in awe of this team. Somehow they come up with a way of getting a result. Graeme Souness on Leicester City United were fabulous for a good half an hour but after that, Leicester came back. The so-called smaller team fell behind to the bigger team but, to a man, none of them threw the towel in.You could see them grinding themselves back into the game and in the second half, they were the better team. That 90 minutes typifies what Leicesters season has been all about. When adversity comes, they deal with it. Somehow they come up with a way of getting a result.Watch Chelsea v Tottenham live on Monday Night Football, 7pm, Sky Sports 1 HD Also See: United make Leicester wait As it happened Souness: Fellaini wont escape ban Ranieri: I wont be watching ' ' '
