The Chicago Bears are making a major overhaul on offense, firing coordinator Luke Getsy and four more assistant coaches on Wednesday.
The Bears announced they had fired Luke Getsy, quarterbacks coach Andrew Janocko, wide receivers coach Tyke Tolbert, running backs coach Omar Young and assistant tight ends coach Tim Zetts. Getsy called plays for the Bears the last two seasons.
The Bears finished 27th in passing offense, but second in the league in rushing, behind quarterback Justin Fields. They finished in the bottom third of the league in completion percentage, touchdown passes, passing yards per attempt, and its quarterbacks were sacked 50 times in 2023.
The team has not said whether Matt Eberflus, who has a 10-24 record in his two seasons as the head coach, would return in 2024. But ESPN's Adam Schefter reported that Eberflus is expected to return for the 2024 season.
