Allen Park — The Detroit Lions continued the team's offseason overhaul of its training staff, hiring Mike Sundeen to serve as the team's new head athletic trainer.
Sundeen comes to Detroit after spending the past nine years as the assistant athletic trainer for the Denver Broncos. He replaces Kevin Bastin, who returned to serve a second stint as the team's head trainer in 2021.
"Stepping away from the NFL again," Bastin posted on LinkedIn earlier this month. "Many thanks to my fellow staff athletic trainers, equipment managers, ground crews, finance staff, team physicians and most of all my wife and family for letting me serve in this profession.
