Detroit Lions coach Dan Campbell met with the media earlier Monday, and he discussed a variety of topics, including sharing his thoughts on the team's current off-the-ball linebacker group.
“I like what we’ve got going on,” Campbell said. “Jamie (Collins Sr.) is a versatile guy. He really gives us a guy that can do a little bit of everything. I mean, he can cover, he can rush, he can play in the stack, he can be a green dot making all the calls. He does give us versatility in that regard.”
Collins, who recently restructured his contract to assist the Lions in gaining salary cap space, is the presumed leader of the group and appears headed for the MIKE linebacker role.
