Veteran middle linebacker and longtime Chicago Bears star Brian Urlacher has retired from the NFL after 13 seasons in the league.

Over the course of his career, Urlacher became one of the most feared run-stoppers in the NFL, wreaking havoc in the middle of the Bears’ defensive front seven and giving opposing offensive coordinators nightmares. The five-time All-Pro linebacker recorded 1,229 combined tackles, 41.5 sacks, 12 forced fumbles, 22 interceptions and two defensive touchdowns in his career.
