When Anthony Lynn was hired before the 2021 season he said the main reason he came to Detroit was because of Dan Campbell. He talked of his respect for the Lions’ head coach and wanting to be part of what he was planning to build with Campbell’s new vision for the Lions.
One of the early surprising storylines, once the season started, was when Dan Campbell decided to remove Lynn from most of his responsibilities and take over play-calling himself.
Local and national media tried to make this into a distraction for both of the coaches, but in a recent appearance on Woodward Sports, it sounds as if Lynn’s respect for Campbell hasn’t changed at all.
