They say you know it’s true love when they pick you up from the airport. If that’s the case, Chicago Bears chairman George McCaskey may have just secured his team’s new general manager.
McCaskey was spotted picking up Kansas City Chiefs executive director of player personnel Ryan Poles at O’Hare International Airport late Monday evening. A fan posted a brief video of McCaskey, donned in Bears gear from head to toe, walking with Poles as they exited the airport.
On Monday, it was reported that Poles, along with Tennessee Titans director of player personnel Monti Ossenfort, and New England Patriots senior consultant Eliot Wolf, were finalists for the vacant GM job. Other names could still be in play, such as Indianapolis Colts director of college scouting Morocco Brown, but it appears as if the Bears have zeroed in one those three, with Poles potentially being the frontrunner.
