Jaylon Johnson has endured one of the roughest stretches in Chicago Bears history. The cornerback arrived right after the peak moment of 2018 and has watched the franchise sink to its lowest depths in arguably decades. He reached his breaking point last season, venting his frustrations in a famous locker room blowup following the Bears\u2019 gut-wrenching loss to the Detroit Lions on Thanksgiving. He was tired of the excuses, tired of the laziness, and more than anything, tired of watching Matt Eberflus hold a job he was unqualified for.<\/p>\n
Make no mistake. Johnson has taken some thinly veiled shots at the Bears\u2019 former head coach more than once in the past few months. He holds Eberflus responsible for several of the team\u2019s ills last season. If that weren\u2019t clear, he made it so during an interview with Fox 32<\/a>. He was asked about Ben Johnson and the new coaching staff. His answer spoke volumes, implying that Johnson does all the little things that Eberflus never did. That is why responsibility for success will be squarely on the players this year.<\/p>\n Bears CB Jaylon Johnson on Ben Johnson & the new coaches: <\/p>\n \u201cI don\u2019t feel like this is gonna be a staff where we can try to blame it on somebody else and things like that. It\u2019s going to be real cleared up and cleaned up for us and we gotta go out there and win.\u201d <\/p>\n \ud83c\udfa5: @fox32news<\/a> pic.twitter.com\/iW0pdE20fh<\/a><\/p>\n
