Dan Campbell's Detroit Lions are no longer counting on a former Miami Dolphins player in their quest to improve the team to go far in the NFL playoffs. The Detroit Lions have made a decision that will affect the makeup of their NFL playoffs schedule.

Dan Campbell shared an update on the possible return of a defender who played in all 17 games last season for the Lions.

It wasn’t that long ago the Detroit Lions were still considered a non-marquee NFL team. In fact, the Lions were once so completely rudderless that future Hall of Fame tight end Rob Gronkowski vetoed a trade to Detroit in 2018 at the near-apex of his legendary career.

Dan Campbell is never one to mince words. The Detroit Lions head coach made sure his message was crystal clear from the very start of the preparations for next Monday's game in San Francisco against the 49ers.

The Detroit Lions are hoping to get one of their key defenders back from injury in linebacker Alex Anzalone, who is working his way back from a broken forearm suffered earlier this season. Head coach Dan Campbell provided an update on Anzalone on Monday.
