Upon further review: Lions' Darrell Bevell elaborates on Matt Patricia comment

Center Frank Ragnow was nominated by the Detroit Lions for the Art Rooney sportsmanship award last week, but interim coach Darrell Bevell might be the nicest person in the organization.

Bevell reaffirmed that sentiment Wednesday, when he took a minute to clarify an answer he gave about former coach Matt Patricia earlier in the week.

On Monday, Bevell mentioned the congratulatory text messages and phone calls he received after Sunday's comeback victory over the Chicago Bears.

"I think the thing that made me the proudest was the people that were sending me texts and phone calls and those kind of things, just talking about what it looked like on TV and how much fun the guys were having and how much energy they had," Bevell said.
