Here’s your daily heaping helping of all the Chicago Bears news that’s fit to share, what’s going on with the NFL and, of course, a look at The Enemy.
The Bears are planning a press conference later today to give updates on their stadium situation, but early reports from “insiders” say it’s more posturing and nothing concrete. Tune in here at WCG to keep informed on the latest news.
The Browns are going to be putting their quarterback competition on display for Bears fans this Saturday at Soldier Field. As of yet, the Bears have not announced which, if any, starters will play Saturday.
All of this and much more below, and remember to share your thoughts in the comments!
