Detroit Lions offensive coordinator Ben Johnson will receive a premium from any team interested in the head coaching job, according to Josina Anderson of CBS Sports.
According to NBC Boston, New England Patriots coach Bill Belichick is the highest paid coach in the NFL with an annual salary of $20 million. . Johnson’s accusations against a Super Bowl-winning coach are outrageous, but in desperate times like some teams are, it only takes one person to buck conventional wisdom and hand a major contract to an unproven coach. Every other NFL coach backs Johnson.

His net worth of $15 million is more than twice the annual salary of Kansas City’s Andy Reid ($12 million) and San Francisco’s Kyle Shanahan ($10 million). The asking price suggests he’s comfortable in Detroit. Since becoming the team’s offensive coordinator in 2022, the Lions have run one of the best offenses in the league.
According to StatMuse, they have 11,982 total yards since the start of last season, third most in the league behind the Kansas City Chiefs and Miami Dolphins. This season, the team ranks 6th with 26.9 points per game. If Johnson wants to, he can easily do so by lowering the price, but teams like the Chargers and Panthers need an offensive specialist to get the most out of their team. He’s a quarterback and you can agree to his terms. As harsh as Johnson’s price may be, it can work.
