Chicago Bears Legend Doug Plank Talks "Bears 46 Defense" and His Story of Perseverance

Chicago Bears Legend Doug Plank, the namesake for the famed "46 Defense", brainchild of Defensive Coordinator Buddy Ryan, shares about how the "46 Defense" came about and how this now legendary defense came to be named the "46 Defense" (Doug Plank, starting Free Safety was #46 on that Bears Defense). He also talks in detail about his journey from lightly recruited high school player to career backup Defensive Back at Ohio State during the Woody Hayes era to entering the NFL as an unheralded late round draft choice to making the team and earning a starting position as a rookie, where he became the first rookie to lead the Bears in tackles, to his now legendary status as being recognized as one of the hardest hitters in NFL history and being recognized as one of the 100 greatest Chicago Bears of all time.
