BOURBONNAIS, Ill. - Bears cornerback Jerry Azumah is expected to be sidelined 3-4 weeks after undergoing arthroscopic hip surgery Wednesday morning in Denver.
The six-year veteran had traveled to Colorado Tuesday to see a specialist for a second opinion after missing practice four out of five days with a sore hip that didn't improve with rest.

"Jerry Azumah had a successful scope done on his hip this morning," said coach Lovie Smith. "They went in and cleaned it out. That's basically all that they needed to do. We expect him to be back in three or four weeks, in plenty of time for the first game, so we're excited about that."

Azumah went through a similar experience last August when he traveled to Pittsburgh for a second opinion on a neck injury before having surgery and missing the first four regular season games.
