Chicago Bears Extend GM Ryan Poles Amid Ben Johnson Hiring

News summary

The Chicago Bears are extending the contract of general manager Ryan Poles, who has a 15-36 record over three seasons but remains aligned with the team's vision. New head coach Ben Johnson, previously the Lions' offensive coordinator, was prioritized by the Bears during the hiring process, emphasizing the importance of culture and quarterback development, particularly with Caleb Williams. Johnson has begun assembling his coaching staff, making notable hires including former Chiefs offensive coordinator Eric Bieniemy as running backs coach, despite some concerns about Bieniemy's recent performance. Johnson's staff also includes Declan Doyle as offensive coordinator, who has limited experience but comes with connections to Sean Payton's coaching tree. The Bears are investing in their future under Poles and Johnson, banking on their combined potential to revitalize the franchise. This strategic shift comes after Poles' controversial coaching hires and a significant trade that positioned the Bears for a promising draft.
