Allen Park, Michigan — Finally, the day has here. New coordinators are needed for the Detroit Lions. After much anticipation, Aaron Glenn (New York Jets) and Ben Johnson (Chicago Bears) are leaving to manage their own teams.
The next question is who they bring along, but for now, we know that Dan Campbell has been given the responsibility of replacing two of his closest confidants during a Super Bowl window.
Of course, it is possible. When the Philadelphia Eagles lost to the Chiefs in the Super Bowl two years ago, they lost Jonathan Gannon and Shane Steichen.
The 2023 season was a bit of a step back, however the Eagles still won 11 games and made the playoffs.
The Eagles are back in the NFC Championship Game following additional staff changes in the previous offseason.
Campbell has demonstrated a keen sense of his demands and talent. He should have a variety of possibilities, both internal and exterior, but you never know with him.
Montgomery has coached at both the NFL and college levels, among other places.
He is a well-respected running backs coach who has been interviewed for a few different offensive coordinator positions, including the Lions’ opening in 2022 and the Bucs’ opening last offseason.
As Campbell’s associate head coach, he is frequently given the responsibility of addressing the entire squad.
He is an obvious leader, a great culture man, and his teammates adore him. The offensive line coach for the Lions, Hank Fraley: One of Campbell’s most crucial coaches is Fraley.
His teaching and communication skills are highly praised by Detroit’s offensive line, which offers a variety of techniques for different players. However, during the off-season, his phone has been ringing. Fraley and the Seahawks have discussed their OC opening.
As his OC, might Johnson bring him to Chicago? Perhaps not. Fraley is not anticipated to land in Chicago, according to a story published Wednesday by Brad Biggs of the Chicago Tribune. In a perfect world, he would be back coaching Detroit’s offensive line.
However, he might be up for the challenge of being an OC here or somewhere else if the right opportunity presents itself.
