The Chicago Bears finally have a date to interview Detroit Lions offensive coordinator Ben Johnson. It'll be a virtual interview, but an interview nonetheless.

Detroit Lions defensive coordinator Aaron Glenn has denied an interview request from the New England Patriots.

As of Thursday, the Chicago Bears have interviewed two high-profile candidates for the open head coaching position. The Bears met with former Tennessee Titans head coach Mike Vrabel on Wednesday.

After losing the first regular-season game in league history pitting teams with a combined 28 victories, the Vikings (14-3) hit the road for wild-card weekend, visiting the NFC West champion Los Angeles Rams (10-7) on Monday night as the most accomplished fifth seed in NFL history.

As the Bears look for their next head coach, offensive mastermind of the Lions Ben Johnson has caught Chicago's eye.

Chicago Bears fans reacted to the team's handling of the head coaching search, and the response reveals a depressing state of affairs inside Halas Hall.

The San Francisco 49ers announced that they have completed an interview with Detroit Lions defensive backs coach Deshea Townsend for their defensive coordinator vacancy.

Aaron Glenn has five head-coaching interviews scheduled for the coming days. But one of those will not be with the New England Patriots.

After a brief return to college as the OL coach at UCLA under Jim Mora Jr. in 2017, Fraley went to the NFL to become the Detroit Lions assistant OL coach (2018-19) before he was promoted to offensive line coach in 2020 where he has remained since.

Deshea Townsend oversaw a Detroit Lions secondary that finished 30th in NFL in pass defense this season but tied for the fifth-most interceptions.

On Monday morning, the Chicago Bears made a formal request to interview Detroit Lions offensive coordinator Ben Johnson. The Bears made other requests to interview several head-coaching candidates, including Mike McCarthy and Arthur Smith.
