Breaking News:Detroit Lions Announce 2 Crucial Coaching Hires
The Detroit Lions have made official their key coaching hires for the 2025 season, announcing the appointment of John Morton as offensive coordinator and the promotion of Kelvin Sheppard to defensive coordinator. These moves come as the team continues to bolster its coaching staff ahead of the new season, aiming to build on the momentum from previous years.
John Morton returns to the Detroit Lions as their offensive coordinator after spending the 2023 and 2024 seasons as the passing game coordinator for the Denver Broncos. Morton originally served as the Lions’ Senior Offensive Assistant in 2022 and now takes the reins of the team’s offense. During his time with Denver, Morton played a pivotal role in the development of rookie quarterback Bo Nix.
Morton’s extensive experience, including his time with the Saints and Jets, will bring a fresh perspective to the Lions’ offense. His return to Detroit is expected to significantly impact the development of key players, further establishing a dynamic offensive scheme that should complement the team’s emerging talent.
