Chris Beatty Promoted to Offensive Coordinator for Chicago Bears
In a significant move following the appointment of Thomas Brown as the interim head coach of the Chicago Bears, Chris Beatty has been promoted to the role of offensive coordinator. This announcement was made by Brown during his initial press conference as the team’s new interim head coach on December 2, 2024.
Beatty, who was previously serving as the wide receivers coach, has been heavily involved in the offense since Brown took over. His elevation to offensive coordinator reflects his contributions and the trust placed in him by the new interim head coach.
Along with Beatty’s promotion, defensive coordinator Eric Washington will continue to oversee the defensive play-calling, ensuring a cohesive approach to the team’s strategy under Brown’s leadership.
Brown’s initial message emphasized the need to unify the football team, addressing previous fractures within the locker room. The coaching staff changes are part of his effort to bring stability and cohesion to the team).
