Talking with sources working with the Bears on the new stadium:
- The Chicago Bears “are solely focused on Indiana.”
- The Chicago Bears are working with the state on acquiring waterfront properties, contingent on large commercial purchases and the testing on those sites (underway).
- The Lake County (IN) council has privately met and committed to the costs of receiving the Chicago Bears.
- The Sports Authority (IN) will charge an amusement fee of around $12 per ticket sold at the new stadium.
Still alarmed by the Bears defense heading into training camp. On paper, they are bad. Last year, they were bad. The only positive were the 33 takeaways, and 23 takeaways were from players no longer on the team. The defensive line still wasn't upgraded either.
Lions cornerback Terrion Arnold is facing multiple felony charges after he was arrested Wednesday in Tampa in connection with a robbery and kidnapping in early February.

Here we are mid-late June and the Bears still haven’t done anything to improve their defensive line, which was their biggest weakness heading into the offseason
The #Titans and All-Pro Jeff Simmons agreed to a deal making him the highest paid DT in NFL history, per me & @MikeGarafolo.
The 3-year, $105.8M extension with $100M guaranteed and was negotiated by Todd France and A.J. Stevens of @athletesfirst. Confirmed on IG by @toddfrance_
The #Saints are bringing back one of their franchise greats, as eight-time Pro Bowl DE Cam Jordan is set to return, sources say.
The two sides are putting the finishing touches on a 1-year, incentive-laden deal during his visit today.
