Urlacher, who turned 34 years old on Friday, went on WMVP-AM 1000 radio to discuss his future with the Bears.
Urlacher said that he could see himself going elsewhere once he is a free agent in 2013. However, he does want to stay in Chicago.
“I think [Bears president] Ted Phillips said when they had the owners meeting they’re gonna wait until the season is over. See what happens, how I play. It’s kind of exciting. I’ve never been a free agent. So if I can get to free agency we'll see what happens."
“I no doubt want to finish my career here. There’s no doubt about that. But you bring in free agency and all that you just never know what’s gonna happen.”
Urlacher will be 35 by then and I don't think he will get as much interest considering his age. He'll most likely stay in the Windy City, considering that's where he'll make the most money.
