Most general managers get two shots at choosing a head coach, and Bears general manager Ryan Poles will get a chance to course correct after firing Matt Eberflus on Friday. Team president Kevin Warren said in a statement he supported Poles in his decision to make a coaching change, and source said the two will work together to hire a new coach.
When Warren said Friday, “Our organizational and operational structure is strong, focused, aligned and energized for the future,” that included Poles.
Theoretically, it will be a more sensible process than the rushed hire of Ebeflus in January of 2022.
