Ben Johnson has interviewed for Detroit Lions OC job, expects clarity in 'near future'

MOBILE, Ala. — Dan Campbell has had multiple lengthy conversations with Ben Johnson about the Detroit Lions' vacant offensive coordinator job, and Johnson said most of those discussions have revolved around how he can help make Campbell's vision for the offense come to life.

"It’s really his vision for it and having his back with that vision," Johnson said Thursday at the Senior Bowl. "And what he wants to see, where he wants it to go. I think it really kind of centers there. This is a head coach-driven team and that’s offense, defense and special teams, and where he wants it to go, we will go, and that of course depends on our personnel and goes out from there.
