Former Bears defensive coordinator Alan Williams had stepped away from the team last week.
Bears defensive coordinator Alan Williams resigned, the team announced Wednesday.
Williams stepped away from the team last week, citing personal issues, with head coach Matt Eberflus taking over defensive play-calling duties for the 27-17 loss to the Buccaneers. “I am taking a step back to take care of my health and family. I appreciate the opportunity to work with the Chicago Bears, a storied NFL franchise with a rich history,”“The McCaskey family is first-class and second to none. I would also like to thank Coach Matt Eberflus and General Manager Ryan Poles for giving me the opportunity to come to Chicago. I would also like to thank President Kevin Warren, the coaches and player of which I value the relationships and camaraderie.
“I value the NFL shield and all that it stands for and after taking some time to address my health, I plan to come back and coach again.”Earlier Wednesday, Eberflus, who is expected to calls plays for the defense Sunday vs. the Chiefs, declined to say whether Williams remained with the team as rumors swirled regarding federal law enforcement and reported raids on Williams’ home and Bears’ headquarters at Halas Hall.
