LAKE FOREST, Ill. -- The Chicago Bears and first-round draft pick Kyle Fuller have agreed to a four-year contract that includes an option for a fifth season. Fuller, a cornerback from Virginia Tech, was taken with the 14th pick last week. With the deal announced Wednesday, the Bears have seven of the eight players they drafted under contract. The exception is defensive tackle Will Sutton, a third-rounder from Arizona. The 5-foot-11, 190-pound Fuller started 42 of 50 games at Virginia Tech and had 129 solo tackles along with six interceptions, 21 pass break ups and four forced fumbles in his career. He had 24 tackles, broke up 10 passes and picked off two in nine games last season. The Bears have a pair of two-time Pro Bowl cornerbacks in Tim Jennings and Charles Tillman, but Fuller is expected to play on Chicagos nickel defence and special teams at the start of his pro career. He could eventually wind up replacing the 33-year-old Tillman, whos on a one-year contract. Both starting safety spots are open for the Bears, but general manager Phil Emery made two things clear last week -- Fuller will play cornerback and Tillman isnt moving to safety. Fuller grew up in a family with four Virginia Tech players, including former NFL defensive back Vincent Fuller, who played from 2005-2011 with Tennessee and Detroit. Corey, a wide receiver, was on the Lions practice squad last year. The Bears have been moving quickly to sign their draft picks. They agreed to contracts with safety Brock Vereen and quarterback David Fales on Monday and defensive tackle Ego Ferguson, running back KaDeem Carey, punter Patrick ODonnell and offensive tackle Charles Leno, Jr. on Tuesday.

Samir Nasris 88th-minute equalizer at Etihad Stadium will be of little consolation to City, which is now six points behind league leader Liverpool and four points behind second-place Chelsea. Third-place City has a game in hand but the surprise result against Sunderland, coupled with Sundays 3-2 loss at Liverpool, may be a setback too far in its bid for a second championship in three seasons.

Louis still looking for a way out of Tampa Bay, the 38-year-old NHL veteran isnt showing his cards.The details of an independent inquiry into UK Anti-Dopings response to allegations a doctor prescribed performance-enhancing drugs to 150 athletes are expected to be announced on Tuesday. Culture, Media and Sport Secretary John Whittingdale met officials from UKAD on Monday to discuss the inquirys leader and its terms of reference.The investigation comes after the Sunday Times reported claims that Mark Bonar prescribed performance-enhancing drugs to Premier League footballers, an England cricketer and Tour de France cyclists, among others. The newspaper claimed UKAD was alerted to Bonars alleged activities as far back as 2014. Bonar denies wrongdoing.In a statement addressing the claims, UKAD confirmed it was warned about Bonar but felt it did not have the jurisdiction to investigate him because he was not governed by a sporting body.UKAD recommended the sportsman who brought the allegations to its attention gather more information and pass it on to the General Medical Council (GMC) - the national body responsible for the registration and conduct of doctors - if appropriate.The GMC has confirmed that while Bonar is registered with it, he does not have a current licence to practise medicine in the UK.The UKAD statement said: In relation to this specific case, UKAD commenced an investigation into Dr Bonar following interviews with a sportsperson in April and May 2014.Following those intterviews and an investigation, UKAD found that there was nothing to indicate that Dr Bonar was governed by a sport and UKAD had no other intelligence to corroborate the sportsmans allegations.ddddddddddddThat admission prompted Whittingdale to call for an urgent inquiry into what happened when the allegations were received by UKAD and what more needs to be done to ensure that British sport remains clean. Culture, Media and Sport Secretary John Whittingdale called for an inquiry Whittingdale has pledged to strengthen the law if investigations throw up any loopholes and former British Olympic Association chairman Lord Moynihan called for doping to be criminalised.The storm caused by the allegations has put pressure on UKADs chief executive Nicole Sapstead but she insists her organisation welcomes the investigation.UK Anti-Doping is extremely concerned by the allegations made in the Sunday Times, Sapstead said in an interview with Sky News.We will be investigating fully those allegations but we are now the subject of an independent review and it would be deeply inappropriate for me to say anything further at this time.When asked if she had any intention of stepping down, Sapstead declined to comment.
