Houston out for rest of season after freak injury ends bad day for Bears

Chicago Bears’ defensive end Lamarr Houston will miss the rest of the season after a freak injury while celebrating a sack.

Houston suffered ligament damage celebrating a sack on Jimmy Garoppolo while his team was trailing by 35 points in their 51-23 defeat to New England Patriots on Sunday night.

Houston leapt in the air after sacking the rookie backup quarterback for an 11-yard loss in the fourth quarter. After landing he grabbed at his right knee and went to the ground.
