Bears Board of Directors Moves Forward with Stadium Development Plans in Indiana, Exact Location Yet to Be Determined
The Chicago Bears’ Board of Directors has voted to advance plans for a stadium in Hammond, Indiana, marking a potential departure from Illinois after over 100 years. Chairman George McCaskey and CEO Kevin Warren view the project as transformative for the region, linking Northwest Indiana to Chicago. This vote is unprecedented for the Bears and signals a pivotal moment as negotiations with Illinois state leadership have stalled. The team, currently at Soldier Field, expressed dissatisfaction with the lack of urgency from state officials regarding potential development in Arlington Heights. The Bears’ lease at Soldier Field extends to 2033, but they can opt out early.
