One of the Detroit Lions’ biggest strengths of their roster is their defensive backs. Both Darius Slay and Glover Quin are Pro Bowlers. Quandre Diggs could be a budding star, while young players like Miles Killebrew and Teez Tabor are bundles of potential waiting to be tapped.
Part of the reason for a such a talented roster is the coaching skills of former Lions defensive backs (cornerbacks) coach Tony Oden. But when Matt Patricia was hired, Oden was out, and the Lions had to find a new coach to head this group of talented DBs.
