1 day agoNFL Network's Ian Rapoport reports that the Detroit Lions have hired Denver Broncos pass-game coordinator John Morton as their new offensive coordinator on Tuesday. Morton recently interviewed for the position and will return to Detroit after working under head coach Dan Campbell several years ago. The 55-year-old will replace Ben Johnson, who took the head-coaching gig with the division-rival Chicago Bears. Morton worked as a senior offensive assistant with the Lions in 2022 before joining the Broncos in 2023. He was also the wide receivers coach for the New Orleans Saints in 2016 when Campbell was the assistant head coach/tight ends coach. Morton was the offensive coordinator for the New York Jets in 2017 and at USC from 2009-10, but he'll have big shoes to fill in his return to Detroit after the departure of Johnson, who elevated the Lions' offense to an elite level the last few years.--Keith Hernandez - RotoBaller
