2022 Chicago Bears season
103rd season in franchise history

- 2023 →
The 2022 season was the Chicago Bears' 103rd in the National Football League (NFL) and their first under general manager Ryan Poles and head coach Matt Eberflus. They failed to improve upon their 6–11 record from the previous season.
Despite starting with a 2–1 record, the Bears lost 13 of their last 14 games including a franchise-record 10-game losing streak to end the season. In Week 13, the Bears were eliminated from playoff contention for the second consecutive season[1] and failed to improve on their 6–11 record from the previous season. With their Week 18 loss combined with a Houston win, the Bears secured the first overall pick in the 2023 NFL draft (which they later traded to Carolina for a package that included D. J. Moore and the eventual first overall pick in the 2024 NFL draft).[2][3] The Bears set a franchise record with 14 losses. The Bears also failed to win a game against a divisional opponent for the third time in franchise history following the 1969 and 2017 seasons.
Despite the struggles, second-year quarterback Justin Fields had a breakout season, becoming the third quarterback in NFL history to rush for 1,000 yards in a season and setting the Bears' single-season quarterback rushing yards record.[4] The Bears also led the league in rushing with 3,014 yards on 558 attempts, breaking their previous single-season record of 2,974 set in 1984.[5][6][7]
Offseason
Offseason changes
Head coach
The Chicago Bears fired fourth-year head coach Matt Nagy on January 10, 2022, who most notably led the organization to one NFC North title and two NFL Playoffs appearances among other accolades.[8] On January 27, 2022, Indianapolis Colts defensive coordinator Matt Eberflus was hired as the 17th head coach in franchise history.[9] Eberflus has planned to transitioned the Bears defense scheme from a 3–4 defense to a 4–3 defense.[10]
General manager
The Chicago Bears fired seventh-year general manager Ryan Pace on January 10, 2022, who most notably led the organization to draft Eddie Jackson, Tarik Cohen, and Mitchell Trubisky.[8] On January 25, 2022, Kansas City Chiefs executive director of player personnel Ryan Poles was named the general manager of the Bears.[11]
Roster changes
The Chicago Bears made several moves in order to clear salary cap space, such as trading defensive end/outside linebacker Khalil Mack to the Los Angeles Chargers in exchange for a 2022 second round pick (48th overall; later used to draft Jaquan Brisker) and a sixth round pick in the 2023 NFL draft.[12]
