Safeties coach Brian Duker breaks down ‘perfect fit’ Lions newcomer DeShon Elliott

In the latest episode of “Twentyman in the Huddle”, Lions in-house reporter Tim Twentyman welcomes the team’s safeties coach, Brian Duker. The topic turns to new Lions safety DeShon Elliott, who Duker knew quite well from his coaching days in Baltimore before coming to Detroit.

“DeShon is a great player,” Duker said. “I was very excited with him being available just knowing, first and foremost, what kind of person he was and what kind of football player he is.”

Duker quickly asserted why Elliott, who spent his first four seasons with the Ravens, is such a good fit for this Lions team under head coach Dan Campbell.
