The offseason awards continue rolling in for the Bears.
On Sunday, GM Ryan Pace was named Sporting News' Executive of the Year award. The award's fitting, given what Pace was able to do during the 2018 offseason to turn a 5-11 team into the NFC North Champions:
Ryan Pace’s 2018 offseason:
* Hired Matt Nagy
* Traded for Khalil Mack
* Retained CBs Kyle Fuller & Prince Amukamara
* Extended DT Eddie Goldman
* Signed TE Trey Burton, WR Allen Robinson, WR Taylor Gabriel
* Drafted Roquan Smith, James Daniels, Anthony Miller, Bilal Nichols— Field Yates (@FieldYates) March 24, 2019Pace is the third Bears executive to win the award - George Halas and Michael McCaskey both won the award in 1956 and 1985, respectively.
