Detroit Lions offensive coordinator Ben Johnson has some free time in his schedule after the Lions clinched the No. 1 seed in the NFC on Sunday night, and he’ll be taking at least a few head coach interviews before his team continues its quest for the Super Bowl.
Johnson is set to interview for the New England Patriots’ and Chicago Bears’ head coaching vacancies this week during the Lions’ playoff bye, NFL’s Tom Pelissero reported Monday afternoon.
“I am told Ben Johnson does intend to interview with both the Patriots and the Bears for their head coaching positions this week. He is interested in those jobs, he has been intrigued by the Bears’ job for some time, and now that the Patriots’ job with Drake Maye at quarterback has become available, that is certainly a possibility to monitor,” Pelissero said on NFL Network.
