Matt Suhey, a former Chicago Bears fullback and member of the team’s 1985 Super Bowl-winning roster, has died. Multiple reports say he was 68 at the time of his death. Suhey played his entire NFL career in Chicago.
Suhey is widely remembered as a key contributor to the Bears’ championship season. The reports describe him as a longtime Bears player who was part of the organization’s most celebrated era, culminating in Super Bowl XX. While the outlets mainly focus on the same career highlights and his death, they differ only in emphasis and phrasing—one report leads with his status as a Super Bowl champion, while another specifies that the information was provided by sources to WGN-TV.
The coverage is consistent on the core facts: Suhey played for the Bears, was a Super Bowl XX champion with the team, and dies at age 68.
