Two days after firing general manager Ryan Pace, the Chicago Bears have requested an interview with a member of the New England Patriots’ front office. As first reported by ESPN’s Adam Schefter, the team has asked permission to interview Patriots scouting consultant Eliot Wolf.
Wolf arrived in New England in March of 2020, and has played a prominent role in the team’s scouting department ever since. Last spring, for example, he spent considerable time on the scouting trail and represented the organization at the Pro Days of top-tier quarterback prospects such as BYU’s Zach Wilson, Ohio State’s Justin Fields and North Dakota State’s Trey Lance.
