Eric Ebron Comments on Lions Offense, OC Jim Bob Cooter and More
Detroit Lions tight end Eric Ebron likes having a coach who won't be soft on his players.
The former 10th overall pick is entering his third NFL season, and the 23-year-old prefers to be coached bluntly and honestly from his offensive coordinator Jim Bob Cooter.
"Everybody’s been babied growing up, especially my era of growing up and I’m only 23," Ebron said, per Paula Pasche of the Oakland Press. "We’ve all been babied, we need someone to tell us what’s real and what’s not. So Jim Bob does that, he lets us know and brings the best out of us."
