Press Taylor Reportedly Getting Promotion to Offensive Coordinator in 2026
"who holds the passing game coordinator title. Press Taylor is one of a handful of internal candidates who could get promoted. And unlike others on this list, Taylor has experience as an offensive coordinator from his time with the Jacksonville Jaguars from 2022-24. Working as the right-hand man to one of the NFL's best offensive minds could repair his reputation and boost his coaching stock."
"The Chicago Bears are set to hire Press Taylor as their new offensive coordinator, according to reporting from NFL Network insider Ian Rapoport. Taylor was on our short-list of candidates who made sense after Declan Doyle's departure to become the Baltimore Ravens offensive play-caller created the vacancy. His name also came up multiple times in recent days as a possible promotion candidate."
Press Taylor was promoted to Chicago Bears offensive coordinator, joining head coach Ben Johnson's staff as a top offensive lieutenant. Taylor previously served as an offensive coordinator with the Jacksonville Jaguars from 2022–24 and had been the Bears' passing game coordinator since January 2025. Declan Doyle left the Bears to become the Baltimore Ravens offensive play-caller, creating the vacancy Taylor filled. Taylor's initial hiring with the Bears generated negative pushback, but his experience as a Jaguars OC and close work with Johnson improved his coaching stock and made him a sensible internal promotion candidate.
