Mandatory Credit: Daniel Bartel-Imagn Images<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>With the NFL in Phoenix this week for the annual league meetings, Warren is there and is making the media rounds early. He appeared on ProFootballTalk with Chris Simms and Mike Florio. Among the things they discussed was the ongoing stadium saga for the Bears.<\/p>\n<p>During the interview, he revealed a potential timeline set for this Spring.<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>\u201cWe have the legislation passed in Indiana, and they\u2019ve been a great partner to work with,\u201d <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nbcsports.com\/nfl\/profootballtalk\/rumor-mill\/news\/kevin-warren-no-deadline-on-stadium-solution-but-we-should-know-by-early-summer\">Warren said.<\/a> \u201cWe are going through legitimate due diligence because we have working through traffic, and construction items, and transportation and all those kinds of different things. It\u2019s progressing right on pace.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIllinois, they\u2019re still working on legislation and we have a wonderful piece of land in Arlington Heights \u2014 326 acres. So we don\u2019t have a set deadline, but I am confident that sometime this spring\/summer, we\u2019ll know.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>The Bears are committed to building a world-class environment with a fixed roof Warren said. That will allow them to host multiple other events throughout the year, earning more revenue. The only hiccup seems to be where the stadium site will actually be.<\/p>\n<p>Warren also ruled out any potential chance the team would stay in the city of Chicago.<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>\u201cWe strongly believe the only site in the state of Illinois and Cook County is Arlington Heights,\u201d Warren said. \u201cBecause when you see that property, having 326 acres with the train station there, the things that we would be able to do \u2014 there are some great sites, we talked a couple of years ago about doing something at the Museum campus. There was not an appetite at that point in time there. And there are some other sites that just don\u2019t fit.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Time will tell which location they choose.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Chicago Bears&#8217; stadium saga continues on as the franchise is focusing on two spots.
