Lions coach Dan Campbell says media ‘wasting energy’ regarding his trade deadline comments

After the Lions defeated the Tennessee Titans Sunday 52-14, head coach Dan Campbell was asked about any potential trade talks with the deadline quickly approaching. Campbell simply said there “could be” potential trade winds blowing.

Campbell was asked about those questions during his Tuesday appearance on Costa and Jansen with Heather. When asked about his jumping, Campbell said: “Dave (Birkett of the Detroit Free Press) asked me a question and I answer it, and then he wouldn’t take that answer, so I jumped up and down with the same answer. That’s literally all that was.”

Campbell was then asked about the jumping and if people shouldn’t look into it, to which he replied “Yeah, you guys are wasting energy.”

The Lions have been subject to trade rumors as far as acquiring a pass-rusher to help fill the void left the loss of Aidan Hutchinson. The trade deadline is Tuesday, November 5.
