Cato June’s time with the Bears was short-lived. The Bears announced the release of June, the former Colt who had spent two weeks with the team and appeared in one contest on special teams before being inactive last Sunday. The team also elevated OT James Marten from the practice squad.

Marten originally entered the NFL as a third-round selection (67th overall) of the Cowboys in the 2007 draft. He was on the Cowboys’ 53-man roster in ’07 but was inactive for all 16 regular-season contests and the postseason. Marten was claimed off waivers by the Raiders before Week Two of the ’08 season. He made his NFL debut on Sept. 21 at Buffalo as a reserve with a role on special teams before being inactive for the final 14 contests
