This week, the Detroit Lions welcomed both general manager Brad Holmes and head coach Dan Campbell to the franchise. Both will be tasked with the difficult goal of turning around a franchise that hasn’t won a championship in over 60 years and hasn’t even won a playoff game in nearly 30.
But it’s fair to say with approval ratings right around 80 percent each, the two have sparked a serious sense of hope and optimism across Detroit and beyond.
So the Lions public relations department did their best to spread that message of hope by booking both Holmes and Campbell on as many media outlets as possible over the past few days. For the Lions, it’s an opportunity to create some serious hype around their newest employees. For fans, it’s an opportunity to get to know them better and learn everything they can about the two people who will be responsible for this team sinking or swimming.
To help you navigate all of this new information, we’ve placed all of the interviews of these two in one place. If they make more media appearances, we’ll add it to the list.
Enjoy.
