The Chicago Bears will hire Tim Ruskell as their new director of pro personnel in the near future according to Mike Florio of PFT.

Ruskell and the Seattle Seahawks parted ways in December while the organization was in talks with Mike Holmgren to return.

The connection to the Bears team seems to start at the top thanks to his relationship with Bears G.M. Jerry Angelo and their time together with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.

The team fired Bobby DePaul earlier this week creating the opening.
