Allen Park — After 10 days of silence, we finally have a pair of names attached to the Detroit Lions’ offensive coordinator search.
According to SiriusXM’s Alex Marvez, Nathaniel Hackett and Steve Sarkisian are in the mix for Detroit’s coaching vacancy. Marvez’s track record with coaching information is strong. He’s broken several Lions-related stories in that realm over the year, including a trio of additions to Matt Patricia’s staff last offseason.
So it’s worth exploring what Hackett and Sarkisian bring to the table, even if they don’t ultimately land the position.
We’ll start with Hackett, the son of former Pitt and USC coach Paul Hackett.
