Watch: One clip shows how much Kevin Zeitler embodies grit

We talk about “grit” a lot when discussing the Detroit Lions. It’s the hallmark of the Brad Holmes/Dan Campbell regime and their recipe for success.

Yet grit can sometimes be hard to define. It’s a love of football that goes beyond what is expected, but it’s more than that, too. Grit involves passion and respect for the game, but that doesn’t quite sum it up either.

Sometimes it just has to be seen to know what it is. New Lions offensive guard Kevin Zeitler showed his intangible grit in a clip shared by NFL analyst (and former quarterback) Robert Griffin III.

This is grit, ladies and gentlemen…

 

Doing pass sets in the maternity ward while the wife is in labor? Yeah, Dan Campbell’s gonna love this guy!
