Chicago Fire rookie forward Angel Reese is quickly becoming engrained into Chicago sports culture.
For the second straight week, Reese found herself on the sidelines of an NFL game. Last week, she was sporting a Ravens jersey at M&T Bank Stadium since she is a fan of the team and was born in the area.
This week, Angel Reese was at Soldier Field and turning heads as she sported a No. 5 jersey, which happens to be a retired jersey number for the team. It was most famously worn by Hall of Famer George McAfee, and Chicago retired his No. 5 jersey in 1955.
“Hey guys, it’s Angel Reese here. I’m at the Bears game today. Bear Down.”
The Bears play at home on Sunday vs. the Carolina Panthers.
Reese is coming off her first season with the Chicago Sky, during which she averaged a double-double of 13.6 points and 13.1 rebounds.
The 22-year-old basketball star will return to action in January for the new Unrivaled League in Miami.
