A story about Brian Urlacher’s leadership

Brian Urlacher always made an impact on the field for the Chicago Bears, but sometimes it’s the impact players make off the field that are just as important.

Everyone has heard Urlacher’s on-field accolades: 8x Pro Bowler, 4x first-team All Pro, Defensive Player of the Year, NFL 2000s All-Decade team, the list goes on and on.

Throughout his career, Urlacher always had the label as a “lead by example” type of leader. He was never really considered an outspoken vocal leader in the clubhouse, but just because you aren’t giving motivational speeches in the locker room, that doesn’t mean Urlacher didn’t lead and have an impact.
