What happened: Kevin Warren said potential sites in Hammond are still being explored. The Bears' board voted June 4 to advance the Hammond development, with the exact location still to be selected.

Why it matters: Moving to Hammond would take the franchise across state lines and still require NFL approval. Continued Illinois talks preserve an in-state path while the team evaluates Indiana land.

What to watch: Watch for selection of a Hammond site and any proposal emerging from the Illinois discussions.
