The Chicago Bears announced Tuesday night they have officially hired Ryan Poles as the club's next general manager.
Poles, 36, was serving as the Kansas City Chief's executive director of player personnel."We are thrilled to be able to add someone of Ryan’s background and football expertise to our organization," Bears chairman George McCaskey said in a statement. "His accomplishments with the Chiefs speak for themselves and amplified the team’s standing as one of the premier franchises in professional sports.
Poles has spent 13 seasons in the Chiefs’ front office, the past year in his current role under general manager Brett Veach. He was the team’s director of college scouting in 2017 when Kansas City drafted Patrick Mahomes with the No. 10 overall pick — after Chicago took Mitchell Trubisky at No. 2. "I am extremely grateful to George, the McCaskey family and the rest of the Bears organization for this opportunity," Poles said in a statement. "The Chicago Bears are one of the flagship franchises in the National Football League and are recognized as one of the most prestigious clubs in all of sports. It’s an honor for me to join such a well-regarded organization.
