One of the big reactions came from Lions wide receiver Amon-Ra St. Brown, who was ironically in the midst of the coaching change, as he interviewed quarterback Caleb Williams on the podcast he hosts with his brother, Equanimeous, who also used to play for the Bears.

Over the last three years, former Detroit Lions offensive coordinator Ben Johnson was instrumental in helping revitalize a once-dormant franchise into a Super Bowl contender. Now, with the Lions on the potential verge of their own glory, Johnson has jumped ship to become the Chicago Bears’ head coach and hopefully have similar success.
