Would a wheel bearing affect toe?

I know I have a rear wheel bearing going out, due the humming noise on the highway. I recently brought the car into Sears for a free alignment check, and the only wheel that was off (in terms of toe) was the one with the bad bearing. Is this coincidence, or the likely culprit?

It seems reasonable to me that a worn out bearing could put some slop in the toe, but wanted to see if anyone had thoughts. I'll also jack it up and check the wheel for excess play when I have a chance.

Thanks!
