In a move that has been anticipated for the past several months, NFL Network’s Ian Rapoport is reporting that the Detroit Lions and offensive coordinator Anthony Lynn “are expected to part ways following today’s game.”
After being fired from his head coaching duties with the Los Angeles Chargers following the 2020 season, Lynn contemplated taking a year away from football. But when Lions' new head coach Dan Campbell came calling, Lynn jumped at the opportunity. Lynn, Campbell and defensive coordinator Aaron Glenn’s relationships date back to their days with the Dallas Cowboys where Lynn was a position coach, and Campbell and Glenn were players.
