Chicago Bears great Steve McMichael was hospitalized Wednesday for undisclosed reasons, according to his publicist, Betsy Shepherd. McMichael is undergoing tests and his family is asking for prayers.
McMichael, 66, has been battling amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) since 2020 and has been hospitalized twice over the past year, most recently in February.
McMichael was voted into the Pro Football Hall of Fame in February, and the former defensive tackle will be enshrined with the Hall’s Class of 2024 in August in Canton, Ohio.
