CHICAGO - The Chicago Bears met with the Illinois governor's office on Wednesday to discuss the team's new stadium proposal. Last week, the Bears announced plans for a new domed stadium along the lakefront, just one day before the 2024 NFL Draft kicked off. The Bears projected the stadium will cost $3.225 billion. Over $2 billion in funding would come from the Bears and the NFL. The remaining 28% of costs, or $900 million, would come from a proposed Illinois Sports Facilities Authority bond funding.
