Chicago Bears: former coach returns to NFL after 5-year absence
The Chicago Bears have seen some unexpected changes occur on their offensive coaching staff. After withdrawing from several NFL job lists, offensive coordinator Declan Doyle suddenly left the Bears for the Baltimore Ravens. In Baltimore, he will have the opportunity to call his own plays. Head coach Ben Johnson calls the offensive plays in Chicago.
To replace Doyle as offensive coordinator, the Bears decided to promote pass game coordinator Press Taylor to the position. In doing so, they keep the voices around star quarterback Caleb Williams consistent.
Meanwhile, one of Chicago’s most notable past offensive coordinators is back in the NFL after nearly a half decade away.
Former Chicago Bears offensive coordinator Adam Gase is back in the NFL

According to NFL insider Ian Rapoport, former Bears offensive coordinator Adam Gase has returned to coaching after a five-year hiatus. He will be working for former Chicago quarterback Jim Harbaugh and the Los Angeles Chargers:
He’s back: After a five-year hiatus, Adam Gase returns to coaching in the NFL, joining the #Chargers as an assistant focusing on the passing game, sources say.

Gase spent the 2015 NFL season was the Bears offensive coordinator. Despite their 6-10 record, Gase turned his experience with the Bears, as well as his past performance leading the Denver Broncos’ offensive, into head coaching gigs. First he was the head coach of the Miami Dolphins for three years. After he was fired there, he spent two seasons as the head coach of the New York Jets.
The former Bears offensive coordinator has not coached at the college level or in the NFL since he was fired by the Jets following the 2020 season. He did some work as an unofficial consultant with the Broncos, but was never hired to their staff.
In Los Angeles, he is officially listed as an offensive analyst.
