Bears
NBC Sports Chicagoโs Adam Hoge reports that the Bears are exploring candidates to replace current GM Ryan Pace, saying that the organization is contemplating many different options:
“With head coach Matt Nagy seemingly on his way out, the Chicago Bears have also begun to do their homework on potential general manager replacements for Ryan Pace, according to multiple league sources,” said Hoge. “That homework has included gauging back-channel interest from at least one college scouting director employed by another club, which isnโt uncommon practice when contemplating a major change.”
Packers
Packers’ TE coach Justin Outten says that TE Josiah DeGuara is playing well after tearing his ACL in Week 5 last season.
โYeah, heโs clicking on all cylinders,” Outten said, via PackersWire.com. “Heโs doing a really good job for us for now. Heโs playing fast. Heโs come alive in every facet.”
