Virtually every member of the Chicago Bears' defense will attend the funeral for the mother of linebacker Brian Urlacher in New Mexico on Saturday, a source with knowledge of the situation told the Chicago Sun-Times.

The Bears informed NFL.com's Steve Wyche that chairman of the board George McCaskey, president and CEO Ted Phillips, general manager Jerry Angelo and head coach Lovie Smith will all be attending the service before continuing on to New Orleans, where the Bears will play the Saints on Sunday.

Urlacher is expected to play in the game after returning to practice on Thursday.

Urlacher missed Wednesday's practice following the sudden death of his mother, Lavoyda Lenard, at her home in Texas on Monday night.
