Players make final push for Jim Caldwell

It’s become clear that Jim Caldwell has the full support of his locker room to remain head coach of the Detroit Lions in 2016.

Players in the locker room reiterated that again Monday as they cleaned out their lockers and started to head home for the offseason.

Veteran cornerback Rashean Mathis said Caldwell is the best coach he’s ever played for.

Lance Moore has played 10 NFL seasons with a few stops along the way. He took it a step further when asked about Caldwell. Moore said it would be an organizational mistake if the permanent GM decided to move on from him.
