The Detroit Lions have hired a new tight ends coach, and it turns out to be a former tight end of the Cleveland Browns. As the Arizona Cardinals continue through their new head coach search, Steve Heiden has jumped ship to join the Lions as their tight ends coach. He has been with the Cardinals since 2013 in various roles and has been the tight ends coach since 2019.
As a member of the Cleveland Browns, the former third round pick racked up 1,600 yards receiving and 12 touchdowns in eight seasons with the team. With uncertainty in Arizona, Heiden how joins the staff of a former tight end himself in Dan Campbell in Detroit.
