The Detroit Lions finished Sunday training camp with one extra rep to close out practice. With former Lions owner Martha Ford in attendance with her daughter—and current team owner—Sheila Hamp, the Lions opted to honor the 97-year-old with one final play.
Coach Dan Campbell approached Ford before the play started and had a message.
“This is a real play with your name on it,” Campbell said.
Then quarterback Jared Goff broke the huddle, and when he approached the line, he screamed out to his teammates the playcall.
“Martha! Martha! Martha!”
The team then walked through a run play, and after David Montgomery had broken free, the entire team turned back to Ford.
