It remains to be seen who the starting quarterback for the Pittsburgh Steelers will be Saturday inside Ford Field for the preseason finale against the Detroit Lions, but for Lions head coach Dan Campbell, he knows who he wants to start under center for his team.
That would be second-year quarterback Hendon Hooker, who is currently the No. 3 QB on the Lions’ depth chart behind starter Jared Goff and top backup Nate Sudfeld.
Speaking to reporters Tuesday, Campbell said he would like to start Hooker Saturday and give him a ton of reps, but it just depends on how Hooker is in his recovery from a concussion that limited him ahead of the matchup against the Kansas City Chiefs.
