Detroit’s Jack Campbell On The Lions’ Defense & Earning Dan Campbell’s Trust



Jack Campbell, the Detroit Lions stud middle linebacker, joins Chris from Lions training camp and talks just straight football. This guy is a man on a mission this season. He’s ready to lead the defense and prepared to help get the Lions to the Super Bowl promised land. Dan Campbell entrusted Jack with the green dot this season, the playcaller on defense and he’s earned the distinction. Jack talks about growing up in Iowa, playing for the Hawkeyes, being drafted to the Detroit Lions, learning from Jared Goff and wearing camo to the Lions halloween event. A great player and a great interview, enjoy!

  1. Great interview!! Jack’s a beast! The reason why the Lions culture is so great is because EVERYONE at their core are good, solid dudes. One Pride.

  2. Chris you have a real knack for getting your interview subjects to relax and open up – they trust you. You also make that connection without making the conversation about you. Nice work. thanks

  3. Jack is a straight up old school huge savage linebacker 0 tolerance to bs he just ready to ball rain sleet or snow he’s ready

  4. He’s always reminded me of Urlacher but faster and more fluid I believe? It usually takes 2-3 years for LB’s to really develop .. big year for the kid!

  5. Dude made the Pro Bowl last year in year 2, and he's the defender nobody talks about. Detroit has elite talent at every level of the defense, and this is the man in the middle of it all.

  6. Jack Campbell killed it last year and was such a HUGE contributor to the Lions defense! This year is going to be even better!! We are so excited to watch him make a huge wave this year ❤

  7. Having an Ex pro, conduct the interview seems to help. These players feel safe, and open up and give truthful non media answers/non pr answers. Appreciate your vids, keep it up.

  8. Of all the fumbles that happened in the NFL last season, most were punch outs or loose possession, but Campbell got his the old fashioned way – drilling some sucker right in the back with his shoulder, and he just spilled it out the other side. Awesome.

  9. "Lets go baby, get ready to roll" talking bout tackling big ass Derrick Henry 😂 never would've guessed Jack has such a personality. He seems so no nonsense on the field and in post games
