With how last season went and the uncertain future facing GM Ryan Poles, it felt like some kind of shakeup might be coming at Halas Hall. Sure enough, it arrived in the most interesting place. Brad Biggs of the Chicago Tribune revealed the team was parting ways with Krithi Chandrakasan. Poles hired him as the team’s Director of Football Analytics in 2022. He’d previously served as a data scientist in Kansas City for three years, so there was obvious familiarity. It appears Poles didn’t get the results he was hoping for.
