Bears ‘Hire’ Defensive Coordinator. It’s Rod Marinelli.
So how’s this for your Bears offseason coaching search?
They hire Option Z in Mike Martz for their offensive coordinator. And after not landing Choice A in Perry Fewell for the defensive coordinator position, the Bears instead promoted Rod Marinelli today from his defensive line coaching role today, according to the Trib.
If nothing else, Marinelli is rather familiar with the Bears’ 4-3 defense. So that’s a plus.
They also named a few other bros as coaches for some lesser roles, putting the coaching search to an end. Hooray.
