CHICAGO (CBS) -- As Brian Urlacher became the 28th Bears player enshrined in the Pro Football Hall of Fame, some of his former teammates took the time to reminisce about what made the great linebacker truly special.
Several former Bears such as Alex Brown, Charles "Peanut" Tillman, Julius Peppers, and Lance Briggs were among those to see their former teammate enshrined in the Pro Football Hall of Fame.
