The Bears waived Carey (wrist) on Friday after both parties came to terms on an injury settlement, Patrick Finley of the Chicago Sun-Times reports.
Carey underwent wrist surgery in mid-August, which was expected to keep him sidelined for six weeks. He was going to be forced to sit on the Bears' IR for the remainder of the season if both sides could not come to terms on a settlement. The running back will now be free to find a new opportunity once his health allows it.
