Barry was the Packers’ defensive coordinator the last three seasons before they fired him Wednesday.

As the Bears work toward reconfiguring their coaching staff, a source said they plan to interview former Packers defensive coordinator Joe Barry.

Barry, 53, was Green Bay’s defensive coordinator the last three seasons before the Packers fired him Wednesday. He also was the Commanders’ coordinator in 2015 and ’16 and the Lions’ coordinator in 2007 and ’08.

He has been in the NFL 22 seasons, but has no work experience with Bears coach Matt Eberflus.
