Overview
- Johnson made the “not-so-mobile” comment after the Bears’ Week 3 Monday night win when asked how he adjusted play-calling for backup Case Keenum, and many listeners linked the line to Jared Goff.
- Goff told the St. Brown Podcast that Johnson called the next morning and said, “Dude, you know that means nothing,” and Goff accepted the explanation.
- Goff acknowledged his limited rushing numbers and said he will respond playfully at some point but will call Johnson afterward to make clear it is a joke.
- Multiple outlets noted that pundits and fans quickly amplified the remark, showing how brief coach quips can turn into broader media storylines before teams refocus on football.
- The incident is now framed as light banter between former coach and player and matters mainly as rivalry fodder ahead of Lions‑Bears meetings on Thanksgiving in Week 12 and again in Week 17.
