In a news conference, Lightfoot responded to a question by saying she'd seen the reports about Arlington Park but that the Bears have a lease with Soldier Field until 2033, and "the NFL doesn't let any teams break their leases."
Lightfoot said she was on a call in the last two weeks about changes the Bears would like at Soldier Field and the city wants to work with the organization.
"I think it's incumbent upon us as a city to step up and look at ways in which we can make sure that Bears fans, but also the Bears as an organization, have the best opportunities to maximize the fan experience and of course, maximize revenues. So we're going to keep those conversations going,"
Lightfoot said.
