Like his father before him, Kennedy Urlacher is headed to play football in the Midwest.

Urlacher, the son of Chicago Bears legend Brian Urlacher, announced to social media this week that he has officially committed to the University of Notre Dame. A Chandler, Ariz. native who stayed in the area for high school, Urlacher is now off to Notre Dame to play for head coach Marcus Freeman.
