The NFL Network’s Ian Rapoport reports that the Lions are parting ways with offensive coordinator Anthony Lynn after Week 18.
The #Lions and OC Anthony Lynn are expected to part ways following today’s game, sources say. One of the more respected leaders as a HC, it was never a good fit as OC for Lynn in Detroit. He had play-calling duties stripped earlier, and now both sides appear set to walk away.

Head coach Dan Campbell and Lynn didn’t see eye-to-eye, seeing as Lynn had his play-calling duties stripped earlier in the year.
The Lions ranked 22nd in the NFL on offense, accruing 5,080 total yards through 16 games.
Over at FanDuel Sportsbook, Detroit is a +142 on the moneyline and a +3 on the spread against the Packers.
This season, the Lions have had a tough go of it, including losing Jared Goff, D’Andre Swift and Jamaal Williams for several games due to injury.
Detroit is currently in second-last place with a 2-13 record and has lost two straight games.
This season, the Lions have been disappointing on both sides of the ball, so this shouldn’t come as a surprise.
This news is unlikely to move the lines, but it’s always a good idea to head over to FanDuel Sportsbook to check odds before kickoff.
