ESPN NFL insider Adam Schefter provided a significant update on Mike McCarthy and the Chicago Bears head coaching situation.

Two weeks ago, ESPN's Jeremy Fowler reported that McCarthy "could set his sights on Chicago." It was apparently mutual after the Bears requested an interview with McCarthy while he was still under contract by the Cowboys, who denied the request. After Dallas and McCarthy decided to part ways, it didn't take long for Chicago to set up an interview.

The Chicago Bears' coaching search is expected to move quickly this week so buckle up because there's a high chance someone gets an offer in the coming days. The Bears will soon begin the second round of interviews with a much smaller pool of potential candidates for the job.
