When Ben Johnson was the Lions’ tight-ends coach in 2021, first-year head coach Dan Campbell made a lineup change over the bye week that helped fuel a rally in the second half. With the return of left tackle Taylor Decker, who had missed the first eight games with a broken finger, rookie Penei Sewell moved to right tackle after playing eight games in place of Decker at left.
Sewell, who’d played left tackle in his two seasons at Oregon, was better at right than he was at left for the Lions, saying at the time that playing the left side somehow helped him on the right.
