Wondering about a player, a past game or another issue involving the Bears? Senior writer Larry Mayer answers a variety of email questions from fans on ChicagoBears.com.

Outside of Brian Urlacher, who was the last player to start and finish his career with the Bears?
Jacquel G.
The first player who comes to mind is Brian Urlacher's long-time running mate and close friend, Lance Briggs, who played his entire 12-year NFL career with the Bears from 2003-14. Although he always seemed to be overshadowed by Urlacher, Briggs was a great player as well, earning seven trips to the Pro Bowl and helping the Bears win three division championships and one conference title.
Do you see Jeremy Langford carrying the ball 25 times a game in 2016?

I fully expect Jeremy Langford to become the Bears' No. 1 running back in 2016, but I think they will still split the workload among Langford and at least one other back, probably Ka'Deem Carey. Throughout his NFL coaching career, John Fox has employed more of a backfield-by-committee approach versus relying on one bell cow back and I expect that to continue with the Bears in 2016.
