Lions GM Bob Quinn lauds new offensive coordinator Darrell Bevell's versatility

Mobile, Ala. — In the halls of Mobile Convention Center on Tuesday morning, Detroit Lions general manager Bob Quinn deferred comment to coach Matt Patricia when asked about new offensive coordinator Darrell Bevell, but the GM shared some observations on the hire in an interview with Sirius XM radio the night before.

Quinn praised Bevell’s background and schematic flexibility.

“He came in and had a great interview with our staff, myself and Coach,” Quinn told Sirius XM. “Really, he’s a guy that brings a lot of different packages. He really does a good job of taking the personnel he has, whether it’s that season or that week, and tailoring it to what we’re going to do, taking the vision of the head coach and tailoring the offense to the skill sets of our players.
