ORLANDO, Fla. -- Matt Patricia had breakfast with Lions beat writers on Tuesday morning during the NFL owners meetings at the Ritz-Carlton here in Central Florida. Although his consisted of only Diet Pepsi.
And the breaking news was just about as light.
If anything has emerged about how Patricia will conduct his business as Lions coach, it is this: He'll be likeable and engaging on just about everything that has nothing to do with football. And he'll be as vague as possible about the football.
That's exactly how his hour-long sitdown went during the coaches breakfast on Tuesday in a plush ballroom at the Ritz.
