Fox Sports insider Jay Glazer reported that Tennessee State head coach Eddie George is set to interview for the Chicago Bears' head coaching position on Sunday morning. This interview marks a surprising development in the NFL coaching carousel.

The Chicago Bears formally interviewed Tennessee Titans legend Eddie George for their head coaching position Sunday in Chicago. George led the Tennessee State University (TSU) Tigers to their first Big-South OVC since 1999 last fall with a 9-3 record and then a 41-27 playoff loss at Montana.

Glazer revealed that the Chicago Bears will interview former NFL star running back and Tennessee Titans legend Eddie George on Sunday for their vacant head coaching position.

The Bears are expected to interview former NFL running back and current Tennessee State University coach Eddie George in person on Sunday, ESPN reported.

The Bears will interview Eddie George for their vacant head-coaching job on Sunday, according to Fox Sports' Jay Glazer. George, a Heisman Trophy winner who had more than 10,000 rushing yards in his NFL career and has been coaching at Tennessee State University, hadn't been listed as a candidate for any of the vacant NFL jobs.

George, the former Titans star running back, will be the third candidate to interview in person as Chicago ramps up its search.

The Chicago Bears are looking for a head coach, and former NFL great/current HBCU head coach Eddie George is getting a look. George is interviewing for the Chicago Bears opening, according to Jay Glazer of Fox Sports.

Eddie George, the Tennessee State coach and former Titans running back star, is a longshot for the Bears job. The Bears are familiar with him from his two-week stint with the team as a Bill Walsh Diversity Fellow in May 2023.

In the NFL, George remained a dominant force on the ground, winning Offensive Rookie of the Year with the Houston Oilers (now the Tennessee Titans) in 1996. He rushed for more than 1,000 yards in seven of his nine career seasons and made four Pro Bowl rosters, later earning induction into the Oilers/Titans Ring of Honor.

The Chicago Bears have completed an interview with Tennessee State head coach Eddie George for their head coach vacancy, the team announced Saturday. It marked the team's 17th interview in the first round of the coaching search -- and the third in-person interview (alongside Mike McCarthy and Ron Rivera).
