TL;DR Summary
Illinois Governor JB Pritzker says progress has been made toward a deal to build a new Chicago Bears stadium in Arlington Heights, with the state focused on funding infrastructure around the stadium rather than direct subsidies; negotiations involve Bears leadership, the legislature, and NFL officials, and Indiana’s efforts to lure the team appear unlikely as the Bears prefer to stay in Illinois.
