Detroit Lions coach Matt Patricia shed little light Tuesday on his decision to fire special teams coordinator Joe Marciano on Monday night, other than to call the move “necessary.”
Patricia did not promote special teams assistant Devin Fitzsimmons outright, but said he would take over most of Marciano’s duties.
“We’ll handle everything in house here,” Patricia said in a conference call with reporters.
