The Bears said Tuesday the team is chartering a flight to take front-office personnel, coaches and players to the funeral of Gaines Adams on Friday in Easley, S.C.
Team president Ted Phillips, general manager Jerry Angelo and coach Lovie Smith are expected to make the trip, along with many other members of the franchise. It would not be surprising if members of the McCaskey family also attend.
The Tampa Bay Buccaneers likely will be well-represented, too. Adams was the fourth pick in the 2007 draft by the Bucs.
A wake for Adams is scheduled from 5-8 p.m. Thursday at Blyth Funeral Home in Greenwood, S.C. The funeral will take place Friday at 1 p.m. at Rock Springs Baptist Church in Easley, not far from where Adams was an All-American at Clemson.
