Matt Nagy sees no signs of defensive drop-off for Bears

LAKE FOREST, Ill. -- Chicago Bears coach Matt Nagy expressed confidence on Wednesday that the team’s top-ranked defense will sustain its level of success under new defensive coordinator Chuck Pagano. Nagy hired Pagano in January to replace Vic Fangio, who departed to become head coach of the Denver Broncos.

“I have zero concerns,” Nagy said at the conclusion of the Bears’ second OTA workout. “It’s going to be exciting. We are seeing some different looks out there that we haven’t seen with Vic. It’s been neat.”

A 16-year NFL coaching veteran, Pagano takes over arguably the league's best defense.
