After college, Halas joined the Marines and served in World War I. He then returned to Chicago and took a job with a local company called A.E. Staley Manufacturing. It was there that he was first introduced to professional football; one of his co-workers was already playing for the Decatur Staleys, one of the league’s original teams.
In 1920, Halas helped form a new professional football league, the American Professional Football Association (later renamed the National Football League). He then bought the Decatur Staleys and moved them to Chicago, where they became the Chicago Bears.

His teams won six NFL championships (1920, 1921, 1932, 1933, 1940, 1941), including two Super Bowls (1986, 1990).
