By Thomson Reuters Feb 8, 2026 | 10:56 AM

The Chicago Bears are promoting passing game coordinator Press Taylor to ‍offensive coordinator, NFL Network reported Sunday.

Once the deal is official, the 38-year-old Taylor will replace Declan Doyle, who ‌accepted the same job ‌with the Baltimore Ravens.

Taylor’s first NFL job came with the Philadelphia Eagles in 2013 when he ​was named offensive quality control coach. He ‍rose through the ​ranks to quarterback ​coach and passing game coordinator, ‍then became a senior offensive assistant with the Indianapolis Colts in 2021. He then spent three seasons ‍as the offensive coordinator of the Jacksonville Jaguars before landing on ‍Ben ‍Johnson’s staff in ​Chicago.

Taylor likely will not ​call ⁠plays in Chicago ‌for quarterback Caleb Williams. Johnson holds that role.

Taylor is the younger brother of Cincinnati Bengals head coach Zac Taylor.
