Chicago Bears will honor late Virginia Halas McCaskey, Steve McMichael on uniforms during 2025 season
The Chicago Bears lost two franchise icons earlier this year. The organization will be paying tribute to both of them on the field this season. The Bears will honor the late Virginia Halas McCaskey with a jersey patch and the late Steve McMichael with a helmet decal. McCaskey, formerly the owner and matriarch of the Bears, died on Feb. 2. She was 102. Her initials are at the front and center of a football-shaped patch that's stitched onto the left breastplate of the Bears' 2025 jerseys. The football is orange, and McCaskey's initials are navy blue. The patch is strikingly similar to the one Chicago used during the 1983 season to commemorate McCaskey's father, George Halas, who founded, owned, coached and played for the Bears over the course of a Pro Football Hall of Fame career. "We thought it would be appropriate if her patch mirrored her dad's from 1983," George McCaskey, son of Virginia and current Bears owner, told the team's website. "So it's the same size, the same color combination. The only thing that's different, of course, is the initials. We thought that was the right thing to do." The "VMH" patch will make its debut on Aug. 10 when the Bears kick off preseason action at home against the Miami Dolphins. Also in honor of McCaskey, Chicago won't wear alternate or throwback uniforms this season. Per the team website, the Bears will wear navy jerseys and white pants at home and white jerseys and navy pants on the road. Players will be outfitted with the franchise's famous navy helmets for every game. On the back of each of those helmets will lie a football-shaped decal, with McMichael's No. 76 featured under the laces. That same logo will be painted on the grass of Soldier Field for every Bears home game this season. McMichael, a Hall of Fame defensive tackle who played for the organization from 1981-93, died at 67 years old on April 23 after battling ALS. McMichael was part of the 1985 Bears, who went 15-1 before winning Super Bowl XX. The decal logo will also be painted on the grass at Soldier Field for every Bears home game. Even though the 2025 season marks a new era for the franchise, with George McCaskey taking over as owner and Ben Johnson taking over as head coach, the Bears are faithfully remembering their past, too.

Matt Turner joins Revolution on loan from Lyon as he looks to get back to national team form
FOXBOROUGH, Mass. (AP) — Matt Turner is returning to his MLS roots as he looks to get back into position to compete for the starting job as U.S. national team's goalkeeper. Turner will join the New England Revolution on loan from French Ligue 1 club Lyon through June 2026, the Revolution announced Friday. The deal includes an option to purchase the contract of Turner, who will be a designated player on the Revolution's roster for the remainder of the 2025 season. He'll be eligible for targeted allocation money in 2026. One of the reasons that Turner was displaced by New York City FC's Matt Freese at the U.S. starter at goalkeeper for the CONCACAF Gold Cup matches in June and July was that he hadn't played consistently at the club level for France's Lyon. Turner, 31, became the No. 1 U.S. goalkeeper ahead of the 2022 World Cup and had started 14 consecutive competitive matches for the U.S. and 23 of 24 before the Gold Cup. Turner will now look to get back to that level in New England, where he made his pro debut in 2016. He last played for New England in 2022, posting a 53.3% save percentage over five starts. ___ AP soccer:
