Brad Holmes' advice to Dan Campbell when it comes to who calls offensive plays for the Detroit Lions next season is simple.
"It’s his football team," Holmes said in his end-of-season news conference Tuesday. "And I told him, 'Man, you need to do what you want.'"
Campbell usurped offensive play calling duties from coordinator Anthony Lynn midway through this season, and after firing Lynn on Monday reiterated that he is considering keeping those duties for 2022.
The Lions showed vast improvement offensively with Campbell calling plays, winning three of nine games and averaging 21.
