Campbell Rejects Coaching Change Rumors After Lions Defense Collapses vs. Panthers
Detroit Lions head coach Dan Campbell refused to fire defensive coordinator Kelvin Sheppard after the team’s defense allowed 445 yards and 32 points in a loss to the Carolina Panthers. The Lions, now 2-2, have surrendered at least 30 points in three of their first four games, a statistical anomaly not seen since the 2008 season. Campbell emphasized that the team will improve through internal adjustments rather than staff changes, citing weekly tweaks to strategy. The Panthers' second-year wide receiver Tetairoa McMillan had a standout performance, catching 14 passes for 192 yards and two touchdowns. While the offense struggled with self-inflicted errors, the defense’s inability to generate takeaways and its poor coverage in the first half were primary concerns for Campbell.
