Ex-Bears GM Ryan Pace Joins Vikings

Ryan Pace returns to the NFC North after six years as Bears GM and will help a Vikings front office that was overhauled this offseason.

  • On Tuesday, the Minnesota Vikings hired former Chicago Bears general manager Ryan Pace as a football advisor, adding significant experience to the staff of new general manager Nolan Teasley.
  • Minnesota remodeled its front office following the January firing of general manager Kwesi Adofo-Mensah, with Nolan Teasley now assembling his staff after joining from the Seattle Seahawks.
  • During his six-year stint as general manager of the Chicago Bears, Pace compiled a 48-65 record with two playoff appearances, then spent four seasons with the Atlanta Falcons.

  • The front office overhaul aims to help the Vikings rebound from their 9-8 record in 2025, with these additions providing strategic depth to support head coach Kevin O'Connell.
