He refused to accept anything less\u2062 than the best from \u2063himself, or from his teammates.&#8221;<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>Butkus \u200dwas widely\u200c known as &#8220;The \u200dMost Feared Man in Football&#8221; and was a five-time first-team All-Pro and eight-time Pro \u2064Bowl selection during his nine seasons in\u2064 the NFL. He retired \u200cat the age of\u200b 31 due to a knee injury but \u200bwas inducted into the Hall of \u200bFame in \u20621979.<\/p>\n<p>Aside \u200dfrom his football career, Butkus enjoyed\u2064 a successful second career as a sports broadcaster, actor, and sought-after pitchman\u2063 for various products.<\/p>\n<p>Butkus&#8217; legacy will forever be intertwined\u200b with the city of Chicago, where he grew up and played for Chicago Vocational \u2062High and the University of \u200bIllinois before joining the Bears.<\/p>\n<p>Teammate Ed O&#8217;Bradovich described Butkus as someone who \u2063didn&#8217;t\u2063 settle for simply hitting opponents but rather loved\u200c to\u200d &#8220;crush people.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Despite\u2062 his immense\u200b talent, the Bears\u200d never reached the postseason during Butkus&#8217;\u200c playing years.\u200c However, he remained \u200dhopeful for the team&#8217;s future success, stating that they should always be in contention.<\/p>\n<p>Butkus is survived by his wife, Helen, and their children Ricky, Matt, and Nikki.<\/p>\n<hr>\n<div class=\"author_subscription_pitch\">\n<h3>A Note from Our Deputy Managing Editor:<\/h3>\n<p><em><b>What if you woke up one morning and half of the people you\u2064 count on\u2064 had just vanished \u2062overnight?<\/b><\/em><\/p>\n<p><em><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">That happened to me recently.
