==References==
Keane, who was born in [[Bellaire, Ohio]], remains the only player to Bears history to lead the team in receptions for four straight seasons, something he accomplished by catching a league-leading 64 passes in 1947, 30 in 1948, 47 in 1949 and 36 in 1950.
{{Reflist}}

When he left the Bears following the 1951 season, Keane was the franchise’s all-time leader with 206 receptions and ranked second behind [[Ken Kavanaugh]] with 3,031 receiving yards.

Keane still holds the Bears record for most receptions in a game. He set the mark by catching 14 passes in a 35-28 road loss to the [[New York Giants]] on October 23, 1949.

Jim Keane died on March 8, 2011 in [[Lake Forest, Illinois]] at the age of 87.
