Ben Johnson is already elite and the Bears' TE has room to grow

Chicago Bears head coach Ben Johnson leads NFL play callers in pass rate on second-and-short situations, according to analyst Ryan Paganetti. Johnson's aggressive approach to second-and-one, second-and-two, and second-and-three downs significantly favors passing plays compared to other play callers since 1999. This strategy contributed to the Bears' offense ranking ninth in the NFL in yards per play last season.
