Lions and GM Brad Holmes agree to extensions with Dan Campbell.
The Detroit Lions announced on Thursday that general manager Brad Holmes and coach Dan Campbell had reached a contract extension. The two will remain in Detroit until the 2027 campaign thanks to these accords.
According to the statement, Lions Owner Sheila Ford Hamp expressed her excitement about having Brad and Dan under contract for the next four seasons. “They have been the main reason for our football team’s reconstruction and the success we have had. Our football program’s continuity from them will be essential to our on-field success in the future.
After joining the company in 2021, Campbell and Holmes have both experienced consistent growth in their careers over the past three seasons. The team’s record in 2021 was 3-13; the following year, they improved to 9-8. The Lions finished 12-5 last season, winning the NFC North for the first time in team history and making it to the playoffs for the first time since 1991 before falling to the 49ers in the NFC title game.
Between their success in the draft and steady improvements on the field, the Lions appear poised to be perennial playoff contenders.
