Chicago Bears add 2 more assistants to coach Matt Eberflus' staff
LAKE FOREST, Ill. (AP) — The Chicago Bears added to Matt Eberflus' staff, hiring former Tampa Bay Buccaneers backup quarterback Ryan Griffin as an offensive assistant and Bryan Bing as assistant defensive line coach on Friday.
Griffin will work with quarterbacks and wide receivers. He entered the NFL as an undrafted free agent with New Orleans in 2013 and moved to Tampa Bay in 2015, where he remained until 2022. Griffin appeared in just two games during his career, though he was with the Buccaneers in the 2020 Super Bowl championship season.
Bing was an assistant with Indianapolis last season.
Chicago was 7-10 in 2023 in its second year under Eberflus and general manager Ryan Poles. The Bears own the first and ninth overall picks in the draft.
