Chicago Bears defensive coordinator Sean Desai has cleared COVID-19 protocols and will call plays against the Minnesota Vikings. Desai tested positive last week as did offensive coordinator Bill Lazor and special teams coordinator Chris Tabor. It was unclear if Lazor or Tabor would work the game. The Bears said Saturday quarterbacks coach John DeFilippo would serve as offensive coordinator if Lazor is out and assistant special teams coordinator Brian Ginn would fill in for Tabor if he is not cleared. The Bears also had 14 players on the reserve/COVID-19 list as of Monday afternoon.
