“I didn’t really have too much time to really have a true reaction,” Lucas said. “I just got the news, went with it and rolled with it.” Matched up most of the game against Redskins star pass rusher Ryan Kerrigan, Lucas performed so well that the offensive line didn’t skip a beat. It helped...

Former Bears Pro Bowl defensive tackle Wally Chambers passed away Sunday at the age of 68. Chambers was voted to three Pro Bowls in five seasons with the Bears from 1973-77 after being selected by the team with the eighth overall pick in the first round of the 1973 draft out of Eastern...

The Bears are familiar with the Vikings’ run-heavy approach. The last player to put up 100 rushing yards against the Bears in regulation was the then-Vikings running back Latavious Murray in 2017. Before that, there was a near-decade of Adrian Peterson. Cook looks a lot closer to the version...

For over a decade, Bears fans have bought thousands of “Real Bears Fans Wear Pink” shirts. This year, the shirt will have a different look. Unlike the shirts from previous years, the 2019 model will have long sleeves, so it should be wearable at Soldier Field well into November. The team’s...

Tough kicker: Eddy Piñeiro was limping noticeably due to a knee injury he sustained in the weight room Saturday. But the Bears kicker fought through the pain, making 1-of-2 field-goal attempts and 4-of-4 extra points. “It was going back and forth the last couple days,” said coach Matt Nagy...
