Detroit Lions’ New Coordinators
As the Detroit Lions gear up for their inaugural matchup against the Green Bay Packers on September 7, the spotlight will undoubtedly be on the newly appointed coordinators leading the team. With the former offensive coordinator Ben Johnson and defensive coordinator Aaron Glenn having stepped into head coaching roles for the Chicago Bears and New York Jets respectively, John Morton and Kelvin Sheppard will take over these crucial positions.
Significance of the Transition
This transition makes the Lions the fourth NFL team since the year 2000 to lose both coordinators to head coaching jobs in the same offseason, joining the ranks of teams like the Eagles in 2023 and Bengals in 2014, as reported by ESPN.
