Bears Fire OC Waldron, Promote Brown Amid Offensive Overhaul

The Chicago Bears have fired offensive coordinator Shane Waldron after less than 10 months, following a series of poor performances, particularly from rookie quarterback Caleb Williams. Head coach Matt Eberflus announced the decision, promoting passing game coordinator Thomas Brown to the role. The Bears, currently 4-5, have struggled offensively, ranking near the bottom of the NFL in several key metrics, and have lost three consecutive games. Waldron's firing comes amid calls for changes to improve the team's offensive output.
