As it turns out, the Lions won’t have to replace their offensive coordinator.
According to multiple reports, Ben Johnson has informed the Commanders and Seahawks that he is going to stay with Detroit for 2024, withdrawing his name from consideration for their head coaching vacancies.
Johnson, 37, has been Detroit’s offensive coordinator for the last two seasons. Each year, the club has finished No. 5 in points scored.
He was considered one of the hottest head coaching candidates entering the offseason and met with several teams. But according to ESPN’s Adam Schefter, Johnson’s “asking price spooked some teams.”
