Most of the coaches who ran the Bears this season aren’t getting hired at the same level by their new teams. Defensive coordinator Eric Washington is headed to the Jets as defensive line coach, CBS reported.
Washington, 55, was hired as defensive coordinator last year under former coach Matt Eberflus. Eberflus initially hired Alan Williams, who resigned after one season and has been out of the league since, then turned to Washington.
Washington took over as defensive play caller when Eberflus got fired. Over those five games, the Bears went 1-4 and allowed 130 points.
