Both Johnson and Glenn have been looked at as top candidates this cycle, and for good reason.
CHICAGO -- The Chicago Bears interviewed Detroit Lions offensive coordinator Ben Johnson and defensive coordinator Aaron Glenn for their head coach position on Saturday. Both figures are key reasons for the Lions securing the No. 1 seed in the NFC and have shined on their respective sides of the ball.
Glenn had a Lions defense that was banged up by injuries, but still ranked seventh in total points allowed, and was a top-10 unit in takeaways. The 52-year-old has been in his current post since 2021.
