Could the Chicago Bears hire an assistant coach and an executive away from the New England Patriots?
The Bears have requested permission to interview Patriots front office consultant Eliot Wolf for their general manager job, ESPN's Adam Schefter reported Wednesday.
Chicago has openings at GM and head coach after firing Ryan Pace and Matt Nagy this week. Sports Illustrated's Albert Breer recently reported that Patriots inside linebackers coach Jerod Mayo is expected to be "in the mix" for the Bears head coach job, so it appears the Bears could have interest in two Patriots employees.
