The Detroit Lions have not been shy about their expectations for first-round pick Jack Campbell in his rookie season. Both general manager Brad Holmes and coach Dan Campbell have told the media that they expect the former Iowa linebacker to make an instant impact in his first year.
“We believe that these guys are ready to go right now,” Holmes said on draft night, referring to both Jack Campbell and Jahmyr Gibbs.
“He’s one of the few linebackers we felt like can get it pretty quickly and we’ll see where he can go with it,” Dan Campbell told Good Morning Football earlier this month.
