During his three years as Detroit’s offensive coordinator, Ben Johnson earned a reputation for bold trick plays, fearlessly calling them in critical moments. Now as Chicago’s head coach, Ben Johnson making sure the Bears are ready by closing minicamp with an unusual drill: sending offensive linemen sprinting down the sideline for passing practice.
Backup QB Tyson Bagent joked that “nobody I threw the ball to, at least” stood out, but right tackle Darnell Wright stole the spotlight with a slick one-handed catch and spin before hitting the ground.
If this is a sign of things to come, Bears fans might be in for some creative offensive fireworks this season.
