Bears great Dick Butkus needs no introduction. He’s one of the toughest guys to ever play in the NFL, and his impact on the game has extended beyond the playing field.
Butkus spent his entire career with the Bears from 1965-1973, where he established himself as one of the best to ever play linebacker. He’s a 5-time First-Team All-Pro, 8-time Pro Bowler, 2-time Defensive Player of the Year, a member of the 1960s and 1970s All-Decade Team and the list goes on.
We had a chance to catch up with the legendary linebacker during Super Bowl week about his work with the NFL Alumni Association’s “Huddle Up: Let’s Talk Obesity” campaign, as well as Justin Fields and how the Bears should be aiming to replicate what the Rams did.
