Report: Bears ‘intensively pursuing’ Darren Rizzi for special teams coordinator job

The Bears are wasting no time building a coaching staff after hiring Ben Johnson as head coach.

With Dennis Allen favored for the defensive coordinator job, the Saints are also seeking Darren Rizzi as special teams coach, ESPN’s Adam Schefter reports. Rizzi replaced Allen as the Saints’ interim coach this season.

Rizzi is still a candidate for two head coaching jobs, with both the Jets and Saints interviewing with him.

Rizzi, 54, is a longtime special teams coach who went 3-5 as the Saints’ interim head coach. He has 16 years of NFL experience, the last six of which were in New Orleans.

Schefter reports that Rizzi is interested in “more than a half-dozen teams” with Chicago as a potential landing spot.
