The Bears have added one of the final pieces for John Fox’s 2017 coaching staff as Zach Azzanni has been hired as wide receivers coach, Brad Biggs of the Chicago Tribune reports.
More than seven weeks after the end of last season, Fox’s staff is coming together with the addition of Azzanni, which two league sources confirmed to the Tribune.
Azzanni comes to the NFL from the University of Tennessee where he was the wide receivers coach and passing game coordinator for the past two seasons. Azzanni has worked for the Volunteers since 2013 and prior to that spent one season as the wide receivers coach at Wisconsin.
