Bears will have Payton tribute Sunday

The Chicago Bears will honor the 10th anniversary of Walter Payton's death Sunday with tributes before and during their game against the Cleveland Browns.

After carrying the Bears flag onto the field before the game, a Bears player will hand the flag to Walter's son Jarrett Payton, who will be what is known as the "Fourth Phase Captain" representing the fans. Vince Vaughn filled that role during the Bears' opener.

Jarrett's mother, Connie Payton, will say a few words, and there will be a video tribute.

The family still is in discussions with the Park District, which runs Soldier Field, as to where to place a statue honoring Payton.
