The Chicago Bears have recently made headlines for unveiling a nearly $5 billion proposal for a new enclosed stadium next to their current home at Soldier Field. Additionally, the team hired Jennifer King as their first female assistant coach, who will be working with the running backs. Unfortunately, the passing of NFL Hall of Famer Dick Butkus at the age of 80 has also brought attention to the team.
