Lions notes: Luke Willson thinks OC Darrell Bevell is ‘a great, great hire’

A few weeks ago the Lions hired Darrell Bevell as their next offensive coordinator. Bevell comes to Detroit after taking a year off following a seven-year stint as the offensive coordinator for the Seattle Seahawks. During those seven years, Willson was a Seahawk for five of them, and he’s a big fan of Bevell.
“He’s the man,” Willson said according to the Detroit Free Press. “I think the world of the guy. I’m not just saying that because he’s the new OC.”
