ALLEN PARK, Mich. – A year ago, Detroit Lions general manager Bob Quinn met with Jim Caldwell for days before deciding to keep him. Now, he’s not worried about that decision at all.
Quinn said the relationship he has with Caldwell is part of the reason he decided to retain his head coach for a fourth season after he went 9-8 with four straight losses to end the year. Of course, the decision was made before that.
The Lions announced the decision to keep Caldwell in the middle of last week, after the head coach faced another round of questions about his job security in the days leading up to the team’s playoff game against Seattle.
