The Chicago Bears will interview Baltimore Ravens offensive coordinator Todd Monken for their head coaching vacancy. Monken brings a lengthy résumé to the table that checks plenty of boxes, including his most recent work with Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson.

For what it’s worth: While working through these profiles, I’m looking for a reason to say no to a candidate as a means to fleshing out the top candidates from the rest, and I will say this: Monken is one of the few candidates through 11 profiles I’ve completed where I have zero reasons to say no to his hiring.
