The Chicago Bears continue to fill out their coaching staff under new head coach Matt Eberflus, which includes another hire on the offensive side of the ball.
According to SI’s Albert Breer, the Bears are hiring Cardinals assistant Jim Dray as their tight ends coach. Dray will be tasked with taking tight end Cole Kmet, who’s entering his third season, to the next level.
Dray, who played tight end for eight years in the NFL, started coaching in the NFL just three years ago. He got his start as an offensive quality control coach with the Cleveland Browns in 2019. Dray joined the Arizona Cardinals in 2020, where he served as an offensive quality control coach for the last two seasons.
