On Tuesday, the Detroit Lions posted a 42-minute video highlighting the best moments from their alternate broadcast of the preseason game against the New York Giants. The broadcast, hosted by NFL Network’s Peter Schrager, featured a ton of guests, including Glover Quin, Golden Tate, Darren McCarty, Dave Birkett, and Chris Spielman, among others.
But most notable of all was the guest who kicked off the broadcast: Lions general manager Brad Holmes. If you watched live, it was fascinating to hear Holmes’ commentary on each player that came across the screen.
One of the best moments, without a doubt, was Holmes’ reaction when second-round pick Brian Branch laid a booming hit on Giants receiver Cole Beasley on a tackle for loss.
