The Chicago Bears have not had a successful campaign for quite a while now. Last season, they had a 3-14 record, placing them in last place in the NFC North division. Their last playoff season came in 2020 when they lost 21-9 to the New Orleans Saints. Their last Super Bowl win was back in 1986, defeating the New England Patriots in Super Bowl XX. And ever since, the Bears have been struggling to revive their former glory.

Virginia Halas McCaskey makes a rare appearance in training camp

Before Virginia Halas McCaskey took over, her father, George Halas, ran the team for almost six decades since 1920. After his death in 1984, McCaskey took over the reins and has been the owner of the Chicago Bears ever since. Virginia Halas McCaskey is the oldest primary owner of an NFL franchise and is also the longest-tenured. Her father brought the team for just $100 and now stands at a net worth of around $5.8 billion. 

The Bears recently shared a post on Instagram. In the post, we see Virginia Halas McCaskey making a special appearance during the team’s training camp. She was accompanied by HC Matt Eberflus, his wife, and the President of the team, Kevin Warren. We see McCaskey smiling for the camera, as she wore a black suit with a Bears cap.
