Let's say the #Lions hired Mike McDaniel as OC. I can only imagine what the reaction would be if Lions fans woke up and read that McDaniel was still interviewing for head coach jobs in this current cycle.
Imagine losing an OC (again) right after landing him.

So the report & statement from the HOF was premature. Just talked to Mel Farr Jr., he said he talked to Lem Barney III, who talked to Lem's nurse, who said Lem is alive. "He's fine. I don't know where that report came from." He said he got a picture sent of Lem w/his nurse today.

Gonna be honest. Joked with @korywoods.bsky.social last Sunday that he could start pre-writing that fine.

#Lions Sam LaPorta (back) had a procedure on his back and Dan Campbell said that he would not only be down awhile, but they would be "very fortunate" to have him back this season.
Significant blow for the Lions.

#Lions Dan Campbell said he feels good about Brian Branch (toe) for this week vs. Giants. The practice report for today was essentially an estimation. Will know more about Terrion Arnold (concussion) after practice.

Dan Campbell was the ultimate course correction from the Matt Patricia era.
J.B. Bickerstaff proved to be the same kind of correction from the Monty Williams year of doom last season, and this year is only reinforcing it.

Interesting move by the NFL: they sent a memo reminding teams that players should punch the ball out, not the player — but used footage of Jack Campbell instead of 49ers defender Alfred Collins from Week 5 against the Rams.
