CHICAGO — The Chicago Bears have let go of head coach Matt Eberflus, following a significant mismanagement of a timeout during their recent defeat against the Detroit Lions. This decision was confirmed by a source who wished to remain anonymous due to the fact that the team has yet to make a formal announcement regarding the change.
In the interim, offensive coordinator Thomas Brown is expected to take over coaching duties, stepping in to lead the team amidst a challenging season.
Eberflus’ tenure with the Bears spanned two and a half seasons, during which he compiled a record of 14 wins and 32 losses. The Bears are currently struggling with a disappointing season, having lost six consecutive games, which brings their record to 4-8.
As the organization looks to rebuild and find a more effective path forward, the transition to Brown could provide a fresh perspective as he steps into the interim role.
