If you can’t beat them, steal them. Or something like that.
The Chicago Bears are hiring an offensive coordinator who was considered an important assistant for the Green Bay Packers, their NFC North counterparts who have dominated the NFC North rivalry for more than a decade.
The Bears are expected to hire Luke Getsy, the Packers passing game coordinator, making him the second top assistant under Matt LaFleur to depart this week after the Denver Broncos plucked Nathaniel Hackett to be their head coach.
Getsy was rumored as the top target for the Bears, and ESPN reported a deal is expected.
