Legendary linebacker Brian Urlacher out of Bears 100 convention

The Hall of Famer gave a graphic description of how he’s feeling.

By Jason Lieser

Former Bears linebacker won’t be part of the 100th season celebration this weekend.

The Bears will kick off their 100th season fan convention without one of the best players in franchise history.

Brian Urlacher tweeted this afternoon that he was forced to withdraw from the event because he is sick.

“Unfortunately I won’t be able to attend,” he wrote. “Something I ate must have got the best of me. Sorry I won’t be able to see all you Bears fans!”

He decorated his tweet with some colorful emojis to illustrate how he’s feeling.

Unfortunately I won’t be able to attend the Bears 💯 🐻 ☹️ @ChicagoBears Something I ate must have got the best of me 🤮💩 😷. Sorry I won’t be able see all you bears fans! #beardown
