So the first major move of the 2020 offseason for the Chicago Bears is to clear out half of their offensive coaching staff, primarily everyone involved in the run game and their assistant special teams coach, and then add a new offensive line coach before the recently departed have even cleared the Halas Hall parking lot.
It is not at all surprising that offensive coordinator Mark Helfrich, offensive line coach Harry Hiestand, tight ends coach Kevin Gilbride and assistant special teams coach Brock Olivo are gone, nor is it in the least bit curious that Juan Castillo – while not yet confirmed by the team – seems destined to fill Hiestand’s job.
