Chicago Bears wide receiver Brandon Marshall will reportedly undergo arthroscopic surgery on his hip, according to multiple sources.

The surgery is expected to sideline the All-Pro for just a few weeks. Marshall did not appear on the team's injury report for a hip injury this season, but has a history with the ailment.

This will be seven-year pro's third hip surgery in four years.

Marshall is coming off his best year as a pro, posting 118 catches for 1,508 yards and 11 touchdowns -- all career-highs.
