Bears coach Ben Johnson jokes about giving up body part to win 10 Super Bowls

INDIANAPOLIS — New Bears coach Ben Johnson’s enthusiasm for bringing the team championships has almost no limit.

As Johnson made the media rounds at the NFL Scouting Combine this week, he taped an episode of Barstool’s Pardon My Take podcast and was asked the hypothetical of whether he’d be willing to push a button that would kill one random Bears fan but guarantee the team would win 10 Super Bowls, he pitched an alternative.

“Can I just give a body part instead?” Johnson joked. “I’ve got the three kids, [and] my wife is already telling me what I need to do next, so I guess we could go with the testicles.”

They asked the same question to rookie quarterback Caleb Williams during training camp last year, and he steered clear of giving an answer.

The Bears hired Johnson, 38, last month after three seasons as the Lions’ offensive coordinator to replace former coach Matt Eberflus, who was fired in November after going 14-32.
