The Senior Bowl kicks off this weekend, with most players and coaches arriving in Mobile, Alabama on Sunday. It’s an incredibly important week for the Detroit Lions, as their coaching staff will have an up-close look at some of the best college players this senior class has to offer. They get a big leg up on the 30 other teams that can only watch from the sidelines while Lions coaches get to interact, chat and coach up their entire squad.
But, at least publicly, the Lions coaching staff is not quite full yet. As of Saturday morning, the team had not announced any hirings for the following positions: tight ends coach, linebackers coach, defensive backs coach and a new strength and conditioning team.
