Chicago Bears Fire Mark Helfrich, Several Assistants

Expectations for the Bears, especially on offense, were sky-high entering the 2019 regular season. We expected to see a young offense take the next step and produce top-half numbers to go with their stingy defense. The end result was nothing short of complete disappointment.

And the Bears’ leadership has decided to make a change.

Per Adam Jahns of The Athletic, the Chicago Bears have fired Offensive Coordinator Mark Helfrich, offensive line coach Harry Hiestand, tight ends coach Kevin Gilbride, and assistant special teams coordinator Brock Olivo. This all comes after a serious regression took place throughout the entire team, particularly on offense.
