The Detroit Lions' coaching staff has undergone the biggest changes yet this offseason under fifth-year head coach Dan Campbell.
The Jets introduced former Detroit Lions coordinator Aaron Glenn as their next head coach Monday. The Lions hired Kelvin Sheppard as their next DC.
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.
The Lions continue to lose high-level staffers after their offensive and defensive coordinators left the team for head coaching jobs.
Detroit might be on the hunt to replace its offensive and defensive coordinators, with Ben Johnson and Aaron Glenn receiving head coaching buzz.
Lions LBs coach Kelvin Sheppard is a top candidate to be defensive coordinator, either in Detroit or under Aaron Glenn with the Jets.
Aaron Glenn coached the Detroit Lions defense from 2021-24 before being hired as the next New York Jets head coach. Is he the next Dan Campbell?
The New York Jets introduced new head coach Aaron Glenn, the former Detroit Lions defensive coordinator, on Monday as owner Woody Johnson and his staff attempted to turn the page on a harshly disappointing 2024 season.
The #Lions are promoting LBs coach Kelvin Sheppard to defensive coordinator, filling the shoes of Aaron Glenn, per me and @MikeGarafolo. A quick rise for the eight-year NFL veteran, Sheppard earns a DC job in only his third season under Dan Campbell. pic.twitter.com/cM3m9ebqEc
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.
The Detroit Lions couldn’t take care of business this season. Despite being arguably the best regular-season team in the NFL, they couldn’t win a single playoff game. That was a big blow for Dan Campbell.
