The Chicago Bears fired running backs coach David Walker on Wednesday, according to multiple reports.
Walker is the second assistant coach Chicago has parted with this season. Defensive coordinator Alan Williams resigned in September in a move co-orchestrated by the team’s HR department, per multiple reports.
ESPN reported that human resources was also involved in the decision to fire Walker, noting he violated workplace behavior protocol for a second time.
The Bears are fifth in the NFL in rushing. They do not employ an assistant running backs coach.
When Williams resigned Sept. 20, head coach Matt Eberflus took over the defensive playcalling.
Walker, 53, joined the team when Eberflus was hired in 2022. He previously coached in the NFL with the Detroit Lions (2016-18) and Indianapolis Colts (2011-14).
