Coach Dan Campbell has been looking to fill both of his coordinator openings following the departures of Ben Johnson and Aaron Glenn to the Chicago Bears and New York Jets, respectively, as their new head coaches. Detroit is set to promote linebackers coach Kelvin Sheppard to defensive coordinator, a team source told The Athletic last week.

Randle El, who played nine seasons as a receiver in the NFL, joined coach Dan Campbell's staff as the WR coach after two years as an offensive assistant with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. The Lions won a franchise-record 15 games in 2024 but were upset 45–31 by the Washington Commanders in the divisional round last weekend.

It’s been a long time coming, but Ben Johnson (Chicago Bears) and Aaron Glenn (New York Jets) are off to run their own franchises. Who they take with them is the next question, but what we do know right now is that Dan Campbell is tasked with replacing two of his closest confidants in the middle of a Super Bowl window.

Dan Campbell might lose a coach or two during the ongoing NFL hiring cycle, but he remains confident the Lions have the foundation to be back stronger next season to compete for the Super Bowl.

Back in 2022 the Detroit Lions drew the short straw and became the team that would be featured on HBO's Hard Knocks show over the summer. It wasn't a short straw for us though because it was awesome.

The Detroit Lions were almost certainly the NFL’s most dominant team in the regular season. The key to their success that saw them win the NFC North title and earn the No. 1 seed in the NFC playoff structure was an explosive offense that averaged a league-best 33.
