The Chicago Bears made several announcements on Wednesday afternoon as they laid out their schedule for the next few months before training camp kicks off in Bourbonnais in July.
Here are a couple of the key dates that fans should keep in mind:
February 20th: Marc Trestman and Phil Emery address the media at the NFL Combine in Indianapolis.
May 1st: Phil Emery Pre-Draft press conference
May 8th-10th: NFL Draft in New York City

June 17th-19th: Veterans Mini-Camp at Halas Hall
There was one player who was particularly excited about the announcements about OTAs and mini-camp, as he has been tweeting all offseason long about his workout habits:
“@ZachZaidman: #Bears announce rookie minicamp will take place May 16-18. Mandatory veteran minicamp will be held June 17-19.” WOOOO — Kyle (@Ky1eLong) February 12, 2014
