The Detroit Lions coaching search is starting to close in, but a few big rumors from Friday could change the trajectory of the top candidates in the search.
On “The A-Team” podcast with Adam Clanton and Adam Wexler, Arron Wilson of the Houston Chronicle—who we interviewed about Rick Smith here—dropped a big piece of news regarding the Lions’ coaching search and their pursuit of 49ers defensive coordinator Robert Saleh.
“Saleh didn’t do very well in the Detroit interview, I was told, and is not a shoo-in to get the job,” Wilson said.
