Bears cornerback Jaylon Johnson shared what he told Matt Eberflus in the locker room after the Lions loss on Thanksgiving.

If Poles gets it wrong on the next coach, they’re probably leaving together. That possibility presents something he and Kevin Warren must navigate with coaching candidates who will be cautious about stepping into the instability of potentially mismatched timelines.

Bears decision-makers were still meeting about Eberflus' future during his Friday presser, so they didn't see any reason Eberflus shouldn't meet with the media.
