The Chicago Bears released wide receiver David Terrell, the eighth overall pick of the 2001 draft, on Monday after four seasons.

The move came two days after the Bears signed All-Pro receiver Muhsin Muhammad, who was released by the Carolina Panthers.

Terrell, who had another year left on his contract, started 15 games last season and led the Bears with a career-high 699 yards on 42 catches with one touchdown. Over four years with the team, he totaled 128 receptions, 1,602 receiving yards and nine touchdowns.

Terrell was known for on-field displays, such as hopping a fence and punting the ball toward the stands after scoring a touchdown in the 2002 season opener. In last year's opener, he was called for an unsportsmanlike conduct penalty when, after catching a pass, he flipped the ball to a Detroit Lions player on the sideline.
