Sunday is certainly a day that Chicago Bears left tackle Charles Leno Jr. will never forget.
First, the Bears beat the Green Bay Packers to clinch the NFC North title. It’s the Bears’ first division title and playoff berth since 2010.
Charles Leno Jr. said of his Bears: "We know that we're a resilient team. We're fighters. And we're NFC North champions now."

And after the game, Leno did much more than just celebrate the division crown.
Leno went to midfield, got down on one knee, and proposed to his girlfriend, Jennifer Roth. She said yes.
SHE SAID YES!

Would Leno have still gone through with he proposal if the Bears lost the game? Leno said, “I knew we would win.”
Bears. Charles Leno Jr. just proposed to his girlfriend at midfield. I asked him if he would still have proposed if the Bears lost. “I knew we would win.”
