Five years ago, Jim Schwartz, then a head coach, and linebacker Stephen Tulloch were in Detroit, doing their best to help the Lions come out on top week in and week out. Now in 2016, they’re both Eagles returning to their previous city and hoping to leave Sunday’s game at Ford Field with a Philadelphia victory in hand.
Neither the coach nor player left the Lions under the best of circumstances. Schwartz was relieved of his coaching duties following the 2013 season and Tulloch was released by the team in July.
But, they don’t have any hard feelings toward the organization.
