| Bears Conclude GM Interviews; Decision Likely Next Week | | | The Bears concluded their general manager interviews Friday and a new GM is expected to be in place in a matter of days. Chiefs director of college scouting Phil Emery and Patriots director of pro personnel Jason Licht are the two finalists for the job. Outsiders have portrayed Emery as the favorite. It may or may not be significant that he was the final candidate to visit this week, and the final candidate to visit last week in the first wave of interviews. The next step for the Bears is for President Ted Phillips and Chairman George McCaskey to make a choice, then get ownership to rubber stamp the selection. Source: Chicago Tribune
