New Bears head coach Matt Eberflus is busy assembling his new coaching staff in Chicago, which will include a couple of familiar faces from the Colts.
According to NFL Network’s Ian Rapoport, Eberflus is bringing cornerbacks coach James Rowe and linebackers coach Dave Borgonzi with him from the Colts. Borgonzi was expected to follow Eberflus, as previously reported, but Rowe is a new addition.
Borgonzi has been instrumental in the success of Colts linebacker Darius Leonard, who has established himself as one of the best linebackers in the NFL. The Bears also happen to have a top linebacker on their roster in Roquan Smith, who would benefit greatly from the influence of both Eberflus and Borgonzi.
