Report: Pete Carroll interested in Bears head coach job, eyes NFL return

It looks like Pete Caroll still wants to be back on the sideline in the NFL.

ESPN’s Adam Schefter reported Wednesday that the former Seattle Seahawks head coach has expressed interest in the Chicago Bears opening.

“In recent weeks, Carroll has begun discussing a return in the NFL and now is interested in doing it,” Schefter reported. “He has not yet spoken with any teams yet, per sources, but he would welcome that chance.”

The 73-year-old transitioned from Seahawks head coach to an advisory role with the organization. He spent 14 seasons as the head coach in Seattle, winning a Super Bowl in 2014.

Carroll has an extensive coaching resume in both the NFL and NCAA. He is one of four head coaches who has led his teams to a national championship and Super Bowl win.

The Bears fired head coach Matt Eberflus after going 14-32 in two-plus seasons. Chicago began the season eyeing a playoff spot after an offensive overhaul but is last in the NFC North.

The Bears revamped their offence, drafting quarterback Caleb Williams with the No. 1 overall pick and acquiring six-time Pro Bowl receiver Keenan Allen.
