Sean McDermott was there at the Bears-Titans joint practice. He spoke with Ben Johnson. Multiple reports say the Bears could be considering him for a advisor post on defense. Sports Illustrated, Bleacher Nation, and Yahoo Sports all noted the buzz. Bears fans have voiced interest in having him on the coaching staff. No formal move has been made. No hire is locked in. As of now, it is just speculation. The team has not issued a public comment. McDermott used to be the Bills head coach. He has a lot of experience. Whether that leads to a role in Chicago is still unsettled.
