History might be repeating itself for Liam Coen. The Kentucky Wildcats had hired him hoping that he would turn around things. But he turned out to be a loss and he plunged into the NFL. With which team? He joined the Los Angeles Rams, under Sean McVay as his OC. However, he jumped ship. This time going back to the Wildcats.

Now, it seems, Liam Coen is ready to take the plunge into the NFL again. But is it the Rams again? Not really. A senior NFL insider has given an interesting update that reflects that he is looking for a different home this time. And the Chicago Bears might just be what he’s looking for.

Liam Coen to join the Chicago Bears?

Winter is breathing its last, and spring will be here in a few weeks. News has leaked that Liam Coen is set to defect from the University of Kentucky. Jonathan Jones, a senior NFL insider, broke the news on X. But there’s no need to get excited, Bears fans. He’s just given an interview for the position of OC with the team. Who knows if he will make the cut or not?

The upcoming year is set to be an exciting one for the squad. Guess who’s entering a hot-seat season in 2024? Head Coach Matt Eberflus and his squad. The Bears had masterfully managed to win the overall No. 1 and No. 9 picks in the upcoming Draft. They have the chance to draft Drake Maye or Caleb Williams. Two college QBs with stellar records. There’s a sword hanging about Justin Fields’ head. And no one is sure whether he will stay on in 2024 or not.

But if stays on, it will be Coen’s duty to resuscitate his career. Here, it is important to look back at Coen’s track record.

Can Liam Coen turn around the Bears’ fortunes?

If you look at his records at absolute value, it’s not very inspiring. His offense wrapped the season ranked No. 23 in red zone touchdown percentage. In terms of other stats such as points per drive and yards per play, his ranking is even more discouraging. They are No. 51 and No., 40 respectively. But if you do want to find the silver lining, there is one. All these numbers are actually an improvement from his 2022 season. Could it be that he’s getting better with time?

What was the main issue with his offense? Mostly efficiency. But his offense did well in the explosive play department. So, that’s something. He had actually also helped the team recruit other players. Brock Vandagriff, Cutter Boley, and Ja’Mori Maclin were also recruited by him. Could he bring his eye for recognizing talent to the Bears as well?
