Teddy Bridgewater, days into his retirement from the NFL, was named head football coach at his alma mater, Miami Northwestern High School, on Friday. Bridgewater, 31, was the school’s quarterback from 2008-10 before heading to Louisville and then the NFL. A first-round draft pick by the Minnesota Vikings in 2014, Bridgewater missed the 2016 and
Just a few weeks removed from losing the chance to play in the Super Bowl, the phrase “unfinished business” in reference to the Detroit Lions is making the rounds. Joining the broadcast crew at the 2024 Pro Bowl Games, star Lions receiver Amon-Ra St. Brown was asked if he was surprised Ben Johnson decided to…
Teddy Bridgewater made it clear when he joined the Detroit Lions last summer that the 2023 season would be his last in the NFL. Sure enough, Bridgewater retired right after the Lions lost to the 49ers in the NFC Championship game last Sunday. It didn’t take long for Bridgewater to find his next career step.
After the Detroit Lions’ devastating loss to the San Francisco 49ers, coach Dan Campbell had a chilling message for his players. “I told those guys, this may have been our only shot,” Campbell said. “Do I think that? No. Do I believe that? No. However, I know how hard it is to get here. I’m…
Teddy Bridgewater announced he’d retire from the NFL after the conclusion of the Detroit Lions’ campaign, as he looked to enter the coaching world. Well, that seems to be exactly what the former Louisville Cardinals star and NFL veteran quarterback has done. Bridgewater has reportedly been named the head coach at his high school alma
The new version of the NFL’s Pro Bowl may be less formal than it was in the past, but that may not necessarily be a bad thing. After all, for years the game itself evolved into what seemed like a modified version of the game we have all come to love.

Thursday afternoon marked the final day of practices at the Senior Bowl in Mobile, Alabama. It’s been a great week with beautiful weather and even better play on the field by the players. As we know, all these players are doing everything they can to solidify their draft status. Certainly, three days of practice should
The final practice for the 2024 Senior Bowl wrapped up Thursday, with both sides working on red zone and goal-line packages. While there weren’t as many 1-on-1s to evaluate, there was still a lot to take in from the final practice in Mobile, Alabama. Here are the biggest winners and losers from Day 3 of
Teddy Bridgewater is retiring from the Lions so he can coach high school football back home in Miami. But Hendon Hooker, Detroit’s rookie QB3, plans to spend plenty more time this off season learning from the journeyman. With Bridgewater leaving the NFL, Hooker likely moves up on the Lions depth chart. The former Tennessee Vol
The Detroit Lions will have five representatives at the 2023 Pro Bowl games down in Orlando, which kick off on Thursday, Feb. 1. Lions running back Jahmyr Gibbs, wide receiver Amon-Ra St. Brown, tight end Sam LaPorta, offensive tackle Penei Sewell, and edge defender Aidan Hutchinson will all participate in various displays of strengths, speed…
The final head coaching vacancy on the NFL coaching carousel got filled on Thursday. The Washington Commanders hired former Cowboys defensive coordinator Dan Quinn as their new head coach. From a Lions standpoint, of course, the hiring means that defensive coordinator Aaron Glenn will not be leaving for Washington. Glenn was one of the finalists
The Detroit Lions accolades keep coming in. The latest come from the publication Sporting News, who have named Lions general manager Brad Holmes the NFL Executive of the Year and Dan Campbell the NFL Coach of the Year for the 2023 season. The voting for this award is based on peers, not the Sporting News…
It appeared heading into the 2024 NFL coaching carousel that the Detroit Lions were in danger of losing both coordinators to head coaching gigs. As it turns out, both offensive coordinator Ben Johnson and defensive coordinator Aaron Glenn are set to return to Detroit. Johnson has already declared that he will be returning to Detroit,…
I know the pain from the loss to the San Francisco 49ers in the NFC Championship game is still fresh. You may not be happy with how the game ended, and as a Detroit Lions fan, I understand entirely. The Lions didn’t lose to the 49ers; they beat themselves. Poor play call decisions on fourth…
Detroit Lions offensive coordinator Ben Johnson made waves on Tuesday when he informed the Commanders and Seahawks that he would be withdrawing himself from both teams head coaching searches. Suddenly there seems to be a concerted effort to make it seem like Johnson was never a guy any team was interested in and maybe some
On Wednesday night, news broke that the Detroit Lions will be adding Tennessee Titans assistant head coach/defensive line coach Terrell Williams to their own coaching staff. Per Dianna Russini, Williams’ role will be Detroit’s defensive run game coordinator and defensive line coach. It’s unclear what this means for current Lions defensive line coach John Scott…
There will be a little less Detroit Lions flavor in the upcoming Pro Bowl Games. Even after adding two Lions players this week, two others have opted not to participate. Quarterback Jared Goff informed the NFL that he’s not going to attend the revamped event, which no longer features an actual football exhibition game. He
Sweat is the top dog on this roster, but the American team also has Alabama’s Chris Braswell, Florida State’s Braden Fiske, Auburn’s Marcus Harris and Texas A&M’s McKinnley Jackson. With Williams, the Lions now have someone on the inside to be a first on-field evaluator to work with these guys. That’s a major plus. There’s
The dust has yet to settle and the wounds still sting, but no matter how you slice it, 2023 was one of the best seasons in Detroit Lions history. Every year, 31 teams fall short of the ultimate prize, but it would be foolish to suggest that all 31 teams end the season as disappointed…
