With Matt Patricia fired after leading the Lions to a 4-7 record, the team has named Darrell Bevell as the interim coach for the remainder of the season.

Bevell has been the team’s offensive coordinator during the entire three-season run under Patricia. He has never been a head coach at any level of football prior to his interim promotion.

The Lions offense has struggled with injuries to several key players in recent weeks. Bevell, 50, has tried to keep it together around QB Matthew Stafford while WRs Kenny Golladay and Danny Amendola, RB D’Andre Swift, and several offensive linemen have been in and out of the lineup with injuries.
