Since that defeat, Ben Johnson has been hired as the head coach of the Chicago Bears and Aaron Glenn has inked a deal to lead the New York Jets,

Another Lions assistant coach is apparently heading to join Ben Johnson's new staff with the Chicago Bears. The latest to jump ship from Detroit is assistant QB coach JT Barrett. While nothing official had been announced,

Ben Johnson is taking another Detroit Lions coach with him to the Chicago Bears. According to his updated Instagram account, Lions assistant quarterbacks coach J.T. Barrett is taking a job as the new Bears quarterback coach.

The raiding of the Detroit Lions coaching staff looks like it is going to continue. According to a report from ESPN's Adam Schefter on Friday evening, the Chicago Bears are set to hire Antwaan Randle El to be their new assistant head coach and wide receivers coach.
