The Chicago Bears will kick off their 2023 regular season against the Green Bay Packers on Sept. 10, which is just 99 days away.
From now until the start of the season, we’ll be counting down each day by revisiting the players who have worn that specific jersey number.
No. 99 is currently worn by fourth-year defensive end Trevis Gipson, who’s entering a contract year with Chicago. But there have been some other memorable players to don the number, most notably Hall of Fame defensive lineman Dan Hampton.
