Former offensive coordinator Ben Johnson is off to Chicago to lead the Bears. Former defensive Aaron Glenn is now the head coach of the New York Jets. Both will be missed in Detroit, but Campbell and company must move forward with the assistants remaining. That process has already begun.

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.

With Aaron Glenn off to the Jets, here are five names to watch as the Lions search for their next defensive coordinator.

We've got some internal and external candidates to watch. It's hard to ignore Kelvin Sheppard as anything but one of the favorites for the job.

Aaron Glenn, the Detroit Lions ’ defensive coordinator since 2021, has agreed to become the next head coach of the New York Jets, according to reports. He returns to the organization where he played the first eight seasons of his NFL career.

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.

Detroit Lions defensive line coach Terrell ... Offensive line coach Hank Fraley and defensive backs coach Deshea Townsend also have interviewed for coordinator jobs, with the Seattle Seahawks ...

The Detroit Lions are still struggling to accept what happened against the Commanders, but they know one thing: Change is inevitable in the NFL.

The Detroit Lions acquired Alabama cornerback Terrion Arnold with the 24th pick in the NFL Draft on April 25 and put him to work.

Saleh was fired as the Jets’ coach five games into this season and is now back with the 49ers, where he made his name in the NFL.

Robert Saleh’s encore as 49ers defensive coordinator took on more likelihood as the Jacksonville Jaguars and the Las Vegas Raiders hired others to fill their head coach vacancies.

Until Robert Saleh has officially signed a contract with the San Francisco 49ers, the rumors will continue to persist.
