Aaron Glenn won't let depleted Lions secondary be an excuse: 'Everybody cashes a check'

Injuries and COVID-19 have hit the Detroit Lions secondary especially hard, but first-year Lions defensive coordinator Aaron Glenn said neither will change his approach for this week's game against the Arizona Cardinals.

"This has been my motto," Glenn said Thursday. "Everybody cashes a check, so I expect you to know what to do when you’re on the field. And that’s just what it is. In everything that we do. If you’ve been here long enough to understand our system, then we expect you to go out there and operate the way we need you to operate.
