The Chicago Bears have completed an interview with Tennessee State head coach Eddie George for their head coach vacancy, the team announced Saturday. It marked the team's 17th interview in the first round of the coaching search -- and the third in-person interview (alongside Mike McCarthy and Ron Rivera).

Eddie George, the former Tennessee Titans All-Pro and current Tennessee State football coach, will interview for the Chicago Bears' head coach opening

Tennessee State coach Eddie George will interview for the Chicago Bears’ vacant head coach job Sunday, per FOX Sports. The Bears have cast a wide net in their search to replace Matt Eberflus, as the franchise has already interviewed 16 candidates for the job.

For some of those teams, that will involve finding new head coaches and/or General Managers. Three teams fired their head coaches during the season and two more have been dispatched as of 9 a.m. ET on January 6.

Johnson's deal is expected to be completed soon, and he already is working to assemble a staff. That process is subject to the Rooney Rule, too, and will take time.

Former USC football running back Reggie Bush said he would want to coach at his alma mater after interviewing with Sacramento State.

Stability can be gained by adding experience. Similar to 2015, the Bears’ search feels purposeful after the team failed with Eberflus, who lacked previous head coaching experience. In 2022, the Bears chose Eberflus over Dan Quinn and Jim Caldwell, their two other finalists, both of whom had been head coaches.

Chicago Bears quarterback Caleb Williams recently discussed being pranked by somebody texting him, pretending to be Detroit Lions offensive coordinator Ben Johnson. The prankster told Williams he was taking the Bears head coaching job.
