Ray McDonald has been arrested on a domestic violence charge in the San Jose area.

The exact date and nature of the alleged incident was not immediately spelled out. 

McDonald signed with the Chicago Bears this offseason and has been released following the incident.

Last season, McDonald had two domestic incidents requiring police attention and was also named a suspect in a sexual assault investigation.

Matt Forte may no longer be the Chicago Bears' workhorse running back with John Fox now in charge.

The Denver Broncos used a dual-back approach over the past few years under Fox and Adam Gase.

"Well this is an unusual situation just because Matt has been in such great shape and has been so dynamic as far as staying on the field," said Gase at rookie minicamp over the weekend, via ESPN.com. "We've just got to see how it plays out. In Denver, C.J. would hate me for saying this, but he got tired and was a little chubby sometimes. I mean, he got worn down quick and then we had to rotate backs in last year. Matt's an unusual situation in that position because he's able to play every play, or has."

Brandon Marshall was nearly traded to the New England Patriots last offseason before he signed a three-year, $30 million extension with the Chicago Bears.

Marshall was traded to the New York Jets this offseason.

"I could have played for the Patriots last year," Marshall told ESPN 1000 on Friday (via the Chicago Sun-Times). "There was an opportunity where there probably could have (been) a trade before the season."

Tom Brady sometimes lacked receiving options, but they still managed to win the Super Bowl.

"It was my agent and the Chicago Bears because there was a little tension on the contract stuff," Marshall said. "I thought I was worth a little more. ... There were a couple of teams that were offering more money.

"It never got that far, but there was a possibility with a couple teams."
