They’re not up on a plaque at the team’s training facility in Allen Park just yet, but Detroit Lions head coach Dan Campbell stressed the four rules he demands of his players.
Campbell laid them out in his press conference at the beginning of Lions training camp on Wednesday morning.
-
Don’t be late
-
Keep your weight in check
-
Don’t disrespect your teammates
-
Don’t disrespect the game
They’re common-sense rules, though it can be hard for some to remember the common sense in the pressure of training camp and the physical demands of the NFL. It seems the team is off to a good start in following the rules.
Campbell, whose press conference started exactly on time at 8 a.m. to the very second, raved about the physical condition his Lions players arrived in for camp.
“They crushed the conditioning tests,” Campbell said proudly.
