The Bears waived Pitts on Tuesday, Courtney Cronin of ESPN.com reports.

Brady Russell: Exits Philly
The Eagles waived Russell on Tuesday, Dave Zangaro of NBC Sports Philadelphia reports.
Russell joined the Eagles as an undrafted free agent in May and was competing for a depth tight end role with the club.
