Chicago Bears coach Ben Johnson and quarterback Caleb Williams spoke about their excitement to work together in interviews released by the franchise. The former USC Trojans quarterback and Chicago's new coach are focused on building a successful offense.

Ben Johnson is now in Chicago coaching the Bears, but on Thursday night, he earned some hardware for his efforts last season leading the Detroit Lions' offense.

Chicago responded with the hiring of highly celebrated Detroit Lions offensive coordinator Ben Johnson, giving former number one overall pick Caleb Williams the chance to learn a whole new system with a proven track record and two division titles to its name.

One former member of the staff, offensive coordinator Ben Johnson, has been named the 2024 NFL Assistant Coach of the Year after a season in which the Lions enjoyed a historic offensive output. The award was announced Thursday at the NFL Honors ceremony in New Orleans, Louisiana.

There's one thing we're definitely not going to do and that is come here and say that Ben Johnson was a bad offensive coordinator for the Detroit Lions. He was spectacular and was a big reason why the Lions had one of the league's top offenses for the last three years in a row.

The Bears have touted tight end Cole Kmet as one of the best players in the league at his position, but they didn’t utilize him as such in 2024.
