ALLEN PARK, Mich. — The last time they played the Bears, Lions coaches told their players to make sure to hit a scrambling Caleb Williams unless he was clearly out of bounds.
It was nothing personal.
“If you’re in bounds,” defensive coordinator Aaron Glenn said Thursday, “we’re gonna hit you.”
Williams took umbrage with one particular tackle, saying he “didn’t appreciate” when linebacker Jack Campbell hit his knee when he scrambled toward the right sideline on Thanksgiving.
“If he’s toeing the line, I’m going to toe the line with him,” Campbell told the Sun-Times on Thursday.
