Doyle is quite young, 29 years old, and that&#8217;s the same age as his starting quarterback, Lamar Jackson.<\/p>\n<p class=\"gnt_ar_b_p\">The youngest OC in the league this season, Doyle&#8217;s main responsibility was to help head coach Ben Johnson develop an offensive game plan and aid in film study. Johnson, a first-year head coach in Chicago who had previously served as the <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/sportsdata.usatoday.com\/football\/nfl\/teams\/detroit-lions\/334\" data-autotag=\"a9d615a6-a025-4346-9c29-28956ed45852\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\" data-t-l=\":b|e|k|\u2691u\" class=\"gnt_ar_b_a\">Detroit Lions<\/a>&#8216; OC, called the plays.

If he had thrown for 58 more passing yards, he would have become the first 4,000-yard passer in team history.
