Overview
- Each jersey will feature an orange football-shaped patch with McCaskey’s initials over the heart, mirroring the tribute worn after George Halas’s death in 1983.
- The team will wear only its standard navy home and white road uniforms, shelving the orange alternates and 1936 throwbacks for the season.
- Bears chairman George McCaskey said the uniform plan reflects his mother’s long-held wish for a single home and away look.
- A navy decal displaying Steve McMichael’s number 76 will appear on the back of helmets and be stenciled onto the Soldier Field turf.
- The understated uniform changes provide a season-long homage to the franchise matriarch and Hall of Famer without a formal ceremony.
