While the focus remains on the Bears and their new hire, attention also turns to the Detroit Lions, who must now navigate the potential departures of Johnson and defensive coordinator Aaron Glenn. Johnson’s absence will undoubtedly be felt, but the core of talent in the Lions' roster provides optimism for a smooth transition.
The Lions will likely continue to emphasize the run game and play action developed under Johnson's tenure, needing to identify a replacement who can replicate that success. The task will also involve making the right calls during critical moments in games, an area where Johnson had previously excelled.
