Carlton Davis Praises Dan Campbell’s Leadership, Hints at Lions Return
Detroit Lions cornerback Carlton Davis is set to hit free agency, but his recent comments suggest he’d love to stay in Detroit. Speaking on the Slightly Decent podcast, Davis shared a powerful story about head coach Dan Campbell taking full responsibility for a Week 2 loss, even getting emotional in the locker room.
“He went in the locker room. Bro, he was crying. He was like, ‘Blame your coach,’” Davis said, emphasizing how rare it is for a coach to admit fault so openly.
Davis also praised Campbell’s personal approach, calling him the best coach he’s ever played for. “He a real one,” Davis said. “That’s why I was out there trying to break my jaw for him.” With free agency looming, Davis’ admiration for Campbell could factor into his decision on where to play next season.
