One of the biggest factors in the Detroit Lions’ resurgence over the past few years has been changing the culture.

It’s been about finding guys who care about one another, respect the game, and truly love football. It appears they’ve yet again struck gold with Detroit Lions rookie Ahmed Hassanein.

Speaking with reporters following the Lions’ unfortunate 34-7 loss to the Los Angeles Chargers, the defensive lineman explained how the experience made him emotional.

“I’m just so grateful and honored to just be in this building and be in this position,” he said.
