After a meeting with the Bears community relations department regarding his youth foundation, he was escorted from the premises of Halas Hall by security.
Clark said that "he was viewed as an uninvited free agent, not a former member of the Bears' family."
Clark told the Chicago Tribune, "I was like, 'Are you serious?', so what I did, just so I could have a relationship with the team was, I wrote them a letter saying my intentions were to never play again and that I was officially retired from football."
