Chicago Bears special teams coach Dave Toub wrapped up an interview Wednesday with Carolina Panthers before meeting with the Kansas City Chiefs on Friday for the position of special teams coach, sources confirmed.

The Chicago Tribune reported Wednesday news of Toub's expected interview with the Chiefs.

Currently under contract with Chicago, which previously told assistants from Lovie Smith's staff they couldn't pursue other opportunities around the NFL, Toub was allowed to interview with Carolina and Kansas City because both teams asked and received permission from the Bears, according to multiple sources.
