Just moments ago, Lions’ owner Sheila Ford Hamp spoke to the media and talked about the decision to make the move, noting that the last two games had a lot to do with the final decision.

Hamp on making this move after the losses to Carolina and Houston: "Both of those games were extremely disappointing. It seemed like the path going forward wasn’t what we wanted it to be."

Hamp: “It clearly wasn’t working. It wasn’t what we had hoped for when we hired them.” Says it was something they had been thinking about for the last few weeks and the last couple games had a lot to do with the move.
