EARLIER REPORT:
On Tuesday, reports surfaced saying the Detroit Lions were going to hire New Orleans Saints secondary coach Aaron Glenn to be their next defensive coordinator under soon to be hired head coach, Dan Campbell.
Well, after everyone got excited about the potentially great hire, another report came out saying Glenn was still considering two other teams and that it was no guarantee that he would end up with the Lions.
Fast forward to just moments ago when Jeremy Fowler of ESPN reported that the Lions have agreed in principle to a six-year contract with Campbell and that he is expected to make Glenn the Lions defensive coordinator.
