The Ben Johnson breadcrumbs are piling up.

Multiple reports surfaced on Monday about the future of the Lions offensive coordinator, who is the H๏τtest candidate in this coaching cycle.

Momentum built for the Raiders last week and now the team brought in a face Johnson is familiar with Sunday for an interview for its general manager vacancy.

Former Lions exec and current Commanders ᴀssistant GM Lance Newmark was reportedly in Las Vegas for an interview, hours after his Washington team stunned Detroit with a 45-31 Divisional Round win on Saturday night.

Before joining the Commanders last year, Newmark spent more than two decades with the Lions, forging a “strong relationship” with Johnson and Lions defensive coordinator Aaron Glenn — another sought-after candidate this coaching cycle — according to ESPN’s Adam Schefter.

Newmark, who most recently served as the Lions’ senior director of player personnel, has also spoken to the Jets about their GM opening and will reportedly have a second interview with Gang Green on Tuesday.

Schefter also reported on Monday that decisions from Johnson and Glenn, who scheduled a second interview with the Jets, are expected by the middle of the week.

Johnson, though, is not a foregone conclusion. The Bears and Jaguars also interviewed the 38-year-old and NFL insider Josina Anderson was told by sources that Johnson is now “deeply considering” the opening in Chicago, which would come with the chance to mentor young quarterback Caleb Williams.

The Bears fired Matt Eberflus the day after a Thanksgiving day loss to Johnson’s Lions and on the way to a disappointing 5-12 season.

The Raiders cleaned house earlier this month with the firings of first-year coach Antonio Pierce and first-year GM Tom Telesco after a disappointing 4-13 campaign.

Johnson, who has served as Detroit’s offensive coordinator since 2022, has been heavily linked to the Raiders’ opening, with NFL Network’s Ian Rapoport reporting Wednesday that the 38-year-old is “is the leading candidate and there’s a lot of people who think, frankly, he’s getting it.”

The “allure” of Raiders minority owner Tom Brady has also been a contributing factor, according to radio host Dan Patrick.

Johnson spoke to the Raiders about the job before the Lions’ season-ending loss on Saturday.

In the wake of Detroit’s heartbreaking loss, head coach Dan Campbell said he’s expecting “to lose both” Johnson and Glenn, who has since secured a second interview for the Jets’ opening.

“I would expect to lose both, but I haven’t been told anything,” Campbell said Monday, according to Pro Football Talk. “I’ve got a feeling, but I’m prepared to lose both.”

Campbell, Glenn and Johnson guided the Lions to a 15-2 regular-season record and the NFC’s top seed.

Campbell added Monday that should his top coordinators exit, the Lions can’t let the shakeup deter their foundation.

“We’ve got guys on staff that are more than qualified to be outstanding in those roles, but that does not mean I’m not looking outside either,” he said. “I want what I believe is going to be as close to what we have been as possible. We don’t lose what we’re about and our idenтιтy. We’re gonna stay true to who we are.”

The Raiders, Jets, Bears, Jaguars, Saints and Cowboys are the current coaching openings.

The Patriots filled their vacancy last week by hiring franchise great Mike Vrabel.
