Chicago, IL – The Chicago Bears have reportedly hired Detroit Lions offensive coordinator Ben Johnson as their next head coach, according to ESPN’s Adam Schefter. The team is finalizing the agreement, bringing in Johnson to lead the Bears after months of speculation.
According to sources, Johnson was Chicago’s top choice for the role, following his successful three-year tenure coordinating the Lions’ offense. His innovative play-calling and ability to develop offensive talent made him a coveted candidate in the league.
The move marks a new chapter for the Bears, who are preparing for their second season with quarterback Caleb Williams, last year’s number one draft pick. Johnson’s hiring signals the team’s commitment to building an explosive offense under his leadership.
The hiring concludes an extensive coaching search by Chicago, which has been focused on finding a leader to revitalize the franchise and return it to playoff contention. Details of Johnson’s contract are expected to be announced in the coming days.
