It is hard to believe, but the Chicago Bears will open up training camp in less than three weeks.
The sting of a 5-11 2014 season has faded away, and optimism in Chicago is high following an overhaul of the organization’s front office and coaching staff this offseason. General manager Phil Emery and head coach Marc Trestman were both fired following the conclusion of last season, and the Bears hired Ryan Pace to take over as the team’s new GM.
Pace acted quickly and hired John Fox to be Chicago’s head coach, and the highly regarded coach brought offensive coordinator Adam Gase with him from Denver and hired veteran coordinator Vic Fangio to run his defense in 2015.
The Bears added a bevy of new players in free agency and the draft this offseason, and the team is currently on break until camp opens up on July 29.
Even though the team has not held a practice session since mandatory minicamp concluded on June 18, plenty of buzz has been surrounding the team over the course of the last few weeks, and we explore some of that buzz ahead.
