Did they jump the gun with the grandstand demolition? CHICAGO -- The Bears are shifting their focus to remain in the city of Chicago with plans to build a new stadium south of Soldier Field, a source familiar with the team's plan told ESPN. The news comes nearly 13 months after the Bears closed on the 326-acre property that formerly housed Arlington International Racecourse in Arlington Heights, Illinois. The team signed an agreement in 2021 to purchase the property for $197.2 million but has not begun developing the site, which was expected to feature a multibillion-dollar stadium project and include restaurants, retail space and real estate. www.espn.com/nfl/story/_/id/39704677/source-bears-planning-new-stadium-south-soldier-field
