The Chicago Bears are set to hire Ben Johnson, the Lions’ offensive coordinator, as their new head coach, aiming for a fresh start.
Chicago: Big news in the NFL! The Bears are about to bring in Ben Johnson as their new head coach. He’s been the offensive coordinator for the Lions and has really made a name for himself.
At just 38, Johnson has climbed the coaching ranks pretty quickly. He spent seven years with the Miami Dolphins before moving to Detroit, where he worked his way up from quality control to offensive coordinator.
This past season, the Lions scored a whopping 564 points, the most in the league! That kind of success has made Johnson a hot commodity among teams looking for a fresh face in coaching.
Last year, he had some interviews but chose to stick with the Lions for another season. Now, it looks like he’s ready to take the plunge into head coaching with the Bears.
It’ll be interesting to see how he transitions to this new role. Fans are hopeful he can bring that same offensive magic to Chicago!
