The Chicago Bears reached an agreement with Mike Groh on Friday, extending his contract to remain as the wide receivers coach.

Groh was the team’s receivers coach the past two seasons under former coach Marc Trestman. He will remain in that role on new coach John Fox’s staff.

Under Groh, the Bears have had three 1,000-yard receiving seasons with Alshon Jeffery reaching the mark in both 2013 (1,421) and 2014 (1,133) and Brandon Marshall reaching the plateau in 2013 (1,295).

In Groh’s two seasons with the Bears, the offense has produced two of the top three highest passing marks in franchise history with 4,450 gross passing yards in 2013 (first) and 4,035 gross passing yards in 2014 (third).

Prior to joining the Bears, Groh spent two seasons as Alabama’s wide receivers coach and recruiting coordinator, helping lead the Crimson Tide to back-to-back national championships.
