Caleb Williams will have a second offensive coordinator nine games into his rookie season.
The Chicago Bears fired OC Shane Waldron on Tuesday. That would be the same Waldron who was hired for the position before the season.
Yes, nine games into a season the Bears have moved on from their OC.
So much was expected with the No. 1 overall pick from USC coming into the Windy City. The offense has been stagnant to stinky.
Thomas Brown has been promoted to OC.
Williams has thrown for 1,785 yards in nine games. The Bears have scored 27 points in their last three games, all losses.

Waldron was passing game coordinator for the Seattle Seahawks from 2021-2023.
This could also be looked at as a way for Matt Eberflus to distract the blame for the season from himself.
