Detroit Lions’ General Manager Brad Holmes recently shared his thoughts on head coach Dan Campbell, praising his leadership while acknowledging some areas for improvement. Holmes described Campbell as one of the best coaches the team has had in years but mentioned that Campbell’s confidence could sometimes come off as arrogance. “Dan is a great coach, one of the best we’ve had so far, but he can be too arrogant at times,” Holmes said in a candid statement. Despite this, Holmes reiterated that Campbell’s intense passion and approach have played a pivotal role in the team’s resurgence.

Holmes also discussed the future direction of the team, particularly regarding player acquisitions and coaching stability. He noted that the Lions are focused on making strategic signings that will enhance their roster. The GM mentioned that adding pieces that complement Campbell’s style of play and vision is crucial to maintaining the team’s competitive edge.

One of the most notable moves in recent days was the decision to extend offensive coordinator Ben Johnson’s contract. Johnson has been integral to the Lions’ offensive success, with a high-powered attack that has turned heads around the league. Holmes confirmed that keeping Johnson was a top priority, acknowledging the coordinator’s creativity and ability to maximize talent on the field.

Looking ahead, the Lions are expected to make further moves in the offseason, targeting players who fit Campbell’s aggressive and dynamic coaching philosophy. Holmes emphasized that the team is in a good position to build on its recent successes and remains committed to creating a long-term contender in the NFC.
