Earlier tonight, we passed along a report that said the Detroit Lions had decided to move on from head athletic trainer, Dave Granito.
Following the Lions first preseason game against the Buffalo Bills, head coach Dan Campbell confirmed the report and said the team is currently in talks with a replacement.
Campbell noted that communication (or lack thereof) played a role in the decision.
Dan Campbell confirmed Kory's reporting here. Lions are in talks with an unnamed replacement. Campbell said decision wasn't about player treatment, but other issues, such as communication. https://t.co/gEp1Y9440z
