The Detroit Lions lost two well-respected coaches this offseason—both to the Carolina Panthers and both for oddly similar reasons.

Jack Campbell and the Detroit Lions have finished their off-the-field business. The first-round linebacker on Tuesday signed his four-year rookie deal, with a fifth-year option with a draft slot of $14.7 million, including a $7.7 million signing bonus and $3.2 million counting against the salary cap. Campbell, the reigning Butkus Award winner, was selected out
