If you bet Ben Johnson the next head coach of the Chicago Bears, the payout odds would be $100 for every $100 bet at BetOnline.

Ben Johnson to Coach Chicago Bears

Per ESPN:

The Bears are finalizing a deal to hire Detroit Lions offensive coordinator Ben Johnson as their next head coach, sources told ESPN's Adam Schefter on Monday.

Johnson, who has been the Lions' offensive coordinator the past three seasons, will fill the job vacated when Matt Eberflus was fired during the season.

Johnson was available to be hired after the Lions, who were the NFC's No. 1 seed in the playoffs, were stunned on Saturday night by the Washington Commanders.

He has rebuffed interest from other teams the past few years and it should be noted that BetOnline had Johnson favored to land as the Jacksonville Jaguars head coach earlier this month.
