Preparation Underway

The Bears will hold their practice in the early afternoon Friday and fly west Saturday.

A Newfound Appreciation

In a difficult week, Bears players have been drawn to Brown, who was promoted Friday when coach Matt Eberflus was fired after the team’s sixth consecutive loss. Brown had been the Bears’ pass game coordinator until three games ago, when he was promoted to offensive coordinator to replace Shane Waldron.

Player Endorsement

“I know guys are excited about T.B. and what he brings,” tight end Cole Kmet said Thursday. “Obviously from the offensive side, we’ve seen what he can do for us, kind of leading us the past few weeks. But I know the guys responded well so far to him being the interim head coach up to this point. So we’ve had fun so far this week. Looking forward to bringing that energy on Sunday.”

Conclusion

Thomas Brown’s first week as interim head coach has come to a close, and the Bears are looking forward to their matchup against the 49ers on Sunday.
