Detroit Lions quarterback Jared Goff and his wife Christen are part of an investment group that made a formal bid to bring a WNBA team back to Detroit. Pistons owner Tom Gores submitted the bid and has put together a solid investment group that includes Lions owner Sheila Hamp.

It’s been a long time coming, but Ben Johnson (Chicago Bears) and Aaron Glenn (New York Jets) are off to run their own franchises. Who they take with them is the next question, but what we do know right now is that Dan Campbell is tasked with replacing two of his closest confidants in the middle of a Super Bowl window.

The Bears are hiring Ben Johnson as head coach and he already has a top candidate in mind for defensive coordinator.

The Lions are heading into the offseason sooner than they or most anyone expected. We’ll kick-start the process by evaluating five questions facing the team.

Most coaches and players will quote a 'next man up' mentality when asked about injuries, adding that it's a part of the game. However, there also comes a time when an injury-riddled team simply runs out of quality players. It's a scenario we saw play out with the New Orleans Saints offense this season.

The Bears are bringing in former New Orleans Saints head coach Dennis Allen as defensive coordinator. Chicago has also hired Denver Broncos tight ends coach Declan Doyle to serve as the offensive coordinator and is retaining special teams coordinator Richard Hightower.

The Chicago Tribune reports former New Orleans Saints head coach Dennis Allen is expected to become the Bears’ new defensive coordinator:

The mentality that new defensive coordinator Dennis Allen plans to bring to the Bears is in keeping with the team’s storied history as “Monsters of the Midway.”

The Chicago Bears hired Dennis Allen to be their new defensive coordinator, and he could bring a former Pro Bowl talent with him to the Windy City.

“Just facing the offense, the creativity of the offense, the way that he’s able to utilize all of his assets and get them in the best position to have success, I was always really intrigued with how he was able to do that,” Allen said.

After Ben Johnson hired former Saints HC Dennis Allen as the Bears' defensive coordinator, the new DC explained how Chicago recruited him.
