General manager Ryan Poles has secured a five-year contract extension with the Chicago Bears, lasting through the 2029 season. He previously had two years remaining on his initial deal. Alongside Poles, new head coach Ben Johnson is also under contract for five years. Since his hiring in 2022, Poles has led a significant rebuild of the team, including trading the No. 1 pick in the 2023 draft for key assets. Johnson, previously the Lions’ offensive coordinator, replaces the fired Matt Eberflus to usher in a new era focused on developing the franchise quarterback.
