Former Northwestern player development director Darby Dunnagan was hired by the Bears

The Bears hired Darby Dunnagan as their director of video operations Wednesday, making her the first woman to hold the title for the team and the highest-ranking female across all video departments leaguewide.

Dunnagan had served as the Northwestern football team’s player-development director. When NU hired her as video coordinator in July 2013, she became the first woman to hold that role for a power conference football program. She supervised the Wildcats’ video staff and assisted in shooting and editing special events and player features.
