The news just keeps pouring out.

Sean Jensen reports that Tice is not going to go to his interview with the Raiders, and will remain with the Bears.

Mike Tice will not interview for the Oakland Raiders heading coaching vacancy, the team announced Monday evening.

This news comes as a surprise. While not considered a frontrunner, many assumed he would go through the interview process as others had.

This indicates that Tice will stay with the Bears, and they will neither need to hire a new coordinator, or put new father-to-be Jay Cutler through the process of working with a stranger at offensive coordinator.
