The Detroit Lions are going to be one of the most interesting teams to watch in the 2024 season. Part of the reason why is that they secured a lot of key players such as QB Jared Goff to long-term contract extensions.

However, an important note here is the Lions also managed to retain OC Ben Johnson. He certainly was considered for multiple head coach positions this past offseason. Yet, he stayed with the Lions as the offensive coordinator.

Many people are curious as to why Johnson was not hired as a head coach this past offseason. Johnson explains that it came down to a personal decision. And he revealed he does not have much optimism for the new head coaches in the NFL.
