As the Bears gear up for the NFL Draft and their first season with Johnson at the helm, Hester shared why he supports the decision.<\/p>\n
During an appearance on the \u201cUp and Adams\u201d show with Kay Adams, Hester said he\u2019s a big fan of the move, pointing out that Johnson brings the kind of offensive approach Chicago has needed\u2014something he demonstrated as Detroit\u2019s offensive coordinator.
\n\u201cI love that hire they made,\u201d Hester said.<\/p>\n
\u201cThe OC from Detroit. That\u2019s the style of offense we\u2019ve been missing. That\u2019s why I say adding another running back in this system, with that backfield versatility, it\u2019ll open up the passing game. And if he installs that kind of offense, the defense will feed off the energy.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
