The Lions are back on the coaching search.
Per Ian Rapoport and Tom Pelissero of NFL.com, Detroit has focused on Saints assistant coach/tight ends coach Dan Campbell.
However, no interview has been done yet and won’t be done until the Saints’ season has ended.
Campbell, 44, played in the NFL from 1999-2009 for the Giants, Cowboys and Lions.
He’s been with the Saints since 2015. Prior to that, he was with the Dolphins from 2010-15.
He served as the interim head coach for the Dolphins for 12 games in 2015. that team went 5-7.
The Lions have been a complete dumpster fire lately. After finishing 9-7 in 2016 and 2017, the Lions were a combined 14-33-1 over the last three years under Matt Patricia.
