Dan Campbell acknowledged the potential loss of coordinators Ben Johnson and Aaron Glenn, stating, 'I haven't been told anything just yet, but we need to prepare for the offseason.' He noted the significance of continuing to build on the team’s successful identity established over the past four seasons.
While Johnson has drawn plenty of headlines for his work on the offensive side of the ball on Dan Campbell's staff in Detroit, Glenn has arguably drawn greater results out of the Lions' defensive unit, especially when factoring in injuries. He has run a Detroit defense that ranks seventh in the NFL in fewest points allowed in 2024, even with the team playing a majority of the season without arguably its most talented defensive player in Aidan Hutchinson.
