How coaching the Senior Bowl has affected the Detroit Lions’ draft process

The Detroit Lions 2021 season is over, but the final game of the season doesn’t end things for them. They’re already busy working on the 2022 season. The first big step for the Lions will be returning to coach the Senior Bowl on February 5.

If the Lions coaching the senior Bowl feels like a familiar thing, that’s because it is. The Lions have coached the Senior Bowl 10 times since 1950. In fact, the Lions coached the very first Senior Bowl. They coached the second one, too. Recently the Lions coached the Senior Bowl with Matt Patricia in 2020.
