Bears offensive lineman Matt Slauson is excited to see who will earn the job.
“I’ve only talked to a couple of the offensive linemen. But they all feel the same way I do — they’re excited,” Slauson said to the Chicago Sun Times. “Now it’s going to be interesting to see who we’re going to have on the offensive side as a coordinator and position coaches. All that stuff that’s going to be a little more pertinent to us on the offensive side, it’s going to be really interesting to see.”
As far as defense? The names being brought up include Dennis Allen, Jim Schwartz and Vic Fangio. Fangio is scheduled to meet with the Bears for the job but also will meet with the Washington Redskins.
