The Bears are playing their first home game since the passing of Mike Ditka, a Hall of Fame tight end who later coached the 1985 Bears to a Super Bowl win.
The Bears plan to pay tribute to Ditka throughout the game, including a stadium-wide mustache giveaway, a Ditka Hall of Fame display in the south courtyard, an on-field flag and stencil and a moment of silence.
