Indianapolis — Brian Duker and Dre Bly are, by most definitions, different flavors.
And that’s exactly what Detroit Lions defensive coordinator Aaron Glenn wanted for his defensive backs this season.
Duker, heading into his third season with Detroit, was officially promoted in February to defensive backs coach, a role he assumed in the short term last season after Aubrey Pleasant was fired. Bly, a former 11-year NFL veteran who spent four years (2003-06) in Detroit, joined Dan Campbell's staff at the beginning of last month to coach cornerbacks.
"I'm looking forward to seeing how (Bly) and Duker operate in that room, because you have two personalities," Glenn said.
