From Times wire services
LAKE FOREST, Ill. — Texan Steve McMichael is heading to his native Houston to talk with the Oilers about playing football there.
The Chicago Bears on Wednesday gave McMichael permission to talk to the Oilers about a trade after negotiations with the holdout defensive lineman broke off.
“I would think Steve will not play for the Bears again,” his agent, Larry Bales, told reporters after a two-hour meeting with Bears negotiator Ted Phillips.
